Made by world leading ceramic makers, Wade, the decanter features three unique illustrations of the iconic grouse taking flight, painted by the famous British wildlife artist, Rodger McPhail. McPhail has a long association with the brand having drawn the much loved red grouse which adorns every label of The Famous Grouse whisky. The Famous Grouse Master Blender Gordon Motion commented: The blend is a true celebration of The Famous Grouse, marking our 30th year as the best selling whisky in Scotland, the home of Scotch whisky.
The spirit itself is a dark gold liquid, with heather honey scent, and a mellow taste with a subtle smokiness.
With only 10,000 bottles available worldwide, distributed by Maxxium Travel Retail, The Famous Grouse Celebration Blend Decanter carries a suggested price of €99 ($142) or equivalent.
