The naked truth: this Grouse is a full house.

Back in the 19th century, Matthew Gloag sold wine (and various Whiskies) at his shop in Perth. When Queen Victoria came around in 1842, he was picked to supply wine to her party. In 1860, during the French Wine crisis, his son William started blending his own Whiskies and a few decades later, his nephew created a blend he called The Grouse. Soon, the blend became a big deal and the family renamed it to The Famous Grouse. Eventually, the distillery joined The Macallan and the Highland Park in a Spirits group. In 2011, a wild blended Scotch matured in ex-Sherry casks appeared and they called it Naked Grouse and it was a smoother and sweeter addition to The Famous Grouse family.

Now, Naked Malt is a strong, independent bird, albeit still naked. It is an answer to an increasingly demanding clientele (both drinkers and bartenders) who want something unique with distinctive flavor. This Whisky made for "older millennials" is a masterful blend of the world's finest Single Malts. It was first matured in American and European oak casks and finished for an extra six months in “naked” Oloroso Sherry casks that haven’t held Whisky before. Naked Malt is designed as a "session Whisky" and it's best enjoyed neat or with cherry cola. Simple in design, fantastic in taste. It won Gold at the 2020 International Sprits Challenge, Double Gold at the 2019 SF World Spirits Competition, plus the Chairman’s Trophy as well as 96 Points at the 2018 Ultimate Spirits Challenge.

We can smell the smokiness. It has a spicy finish. It's a solid 4 out of 5

Good!

Amber Kingdom Advent Calendar 2023, Day 16. This is quite good. Sweet, peppery, smoky. One of the best in this year's sampler thus far. Surprisingly good for the price. I will definitely be buying a bottle.

Naked Malt

Nose is sherry and smoke. Taste is sherry with custard and caramel. Finish is oaky with some chocolate.

This whiskey has a some good notes and some confusing notes. A good amber color with lots of complexity on the nose, including malt, fruit, and some smoke. The taste includes caramel, smoke, and really strong sherry overtones that don't work as well. The finish is okay, but clouded by the muddled taste of sherry and smoke. Not one of my favorite.
