The Famous Grouse Ruby Cask is a special edition blended Scotch whisky produced by The Famous Grouse distillery. It is known for its unique maturation in casks that previously held ruby port wine.
The whisky begins with the original Famous Grouse blend, which is a combination of malt and grain whiskies. It is then transferred to casks that previously held ruby port wine, allowing it to undergo a secondary maturation period. This additional maturation in the port casks imparts distinct flavors and characteristics to the whisky.
The Famous Grouse Ruby Cask is often described as having a rich and fruity flavor profile. It combines the smoothness and richness of the Famous Grouse blend with the sweet and fruity notes of the ruby port casks. Expect flavors of ripe berries, red fruits, toffee, and hints of spice.
