Famous Grouse Vintage Malt 1992

The Famous Grouse Vintage Malt 1992 is a discontinued, vintage-dated blended malt Scotch whisky, originally produced for the travel retail market. Unlike the standard Famous Grouse blend, it contains exclusively malt whiskies, with no grain whisky.

The Famous Grouse Vintage Malt 1992 represents a distinctive chapter in the history of one of Scotland's most recognised whisky brands.

Created from a selection of malt whiskies distilled during the same vintage year, this special expression showcases a richer and more complex side of The Famous Grouse than its familiar everyday blended Scotch.

The whisky incorporates malt whiskies associated with The Macallan and Highland Park, bringing together sherried richness, honeyed malt sweetness and a delicate smoky character. Historical descriptions identify maturation in sherry butts and hogsheads.

Originally released for the travel retail market, this vintage-dated expression is now discontinued and offers collectors an opportunity to explore an earlier era of Scottish whisky blending.

With its 1992 distillation vintage, early-2000s bottling history and traditional presentation, The Famous Grouse Vintage Malt 1992 is an appealing addition to collections of older Scotch whisky.
