The Grouse blended Scotch whisky was introduced by Perth wine merchants Matthew Gloag in 1896, and its success was so swift that the brand was renamed The Famous Grouse less than a decade later in 1905. The Gloag family sold up to Highland Distillers in 1970, and the brand was awarded a Royal Warrant in 1984.
Highland Distillers was purchased by Edrington in 1999 and the company’s Glenturret distillery was proclaimed as The Home of Famous Grouse until the distillery was sold in 2019. Glenturret remains at the heart of Famous Grouse, which has been the best-selling whisky in Scotland since the 1980s.
Although a condition report is normally included in the Lot description, we do recommend
viewing/close inspection prior to placing any bids. If this is not an option and you have questions
beyond the offered description and images, please use the form below "Ask A Question" to make
specific enquiries or to receive a more in-depth condition report. Otherwise, Lots will be sold as
seen and described.
Please note: due to the various ages of bottles, corks and their seals, condition of liquid is at the
buyer's discretion. And no claim can be lodged against failure/leakage in transit.All bottles are
checked by our whisky specialists Wayne & Harrison Ormerod prior to any auction. We do not
auction opened bottles so therefore all items are sealed unless stated under certain
circumstances where seals were never issued by the producer.
No item is deemed new, however many items are generally in good condition. When this is not the
case, we aim to mention any faults in the description. The images supplied are of the actual item
you will receive. If the filling level of the liquid is not visible in the images provided, we aim to
indicate the current position in the description. If the filling level is impossible to determine, such
as with ceramics decanters, we will provide an overall weight of the decanter in KG. Our filling
level guideline can be found here.
All information in this listing is provided to the best of our knowledge including when we chose to
date the age of a bottle. If you are unhappy with the listing or believe there is an
error/discrepancy, you should notify us immediately and we will address the Lot accordingly.
Placing a bid confirms you have checked the Lot and are satisfied.
