Founded in 1896 by Matthew Gloag, The Famous Grouse story begins in a small shop in Perthshire, Scotland, where Matthew blended his first dram. Matthew Gloag wanted to create the best quality blended whisky to be shared and savoured all over the world. More than 125 years later, The Famous Grouse is sold in over 100 countries.
Initially called ‘The Grouse’, the whisky was named after an occasion, in tribute to Perthshire’s favourite bird and in honour of its idyllic home. In 1905 the whisky was renamed The Famous Grouse, a smooth and perfectly balanced blend which became Scotland’s No. 1 whisky in 1980.
