<p>The naked truth: this Grouse is a full house.</p><p>Back in the 19th century, <em>Matthew Gloag</em> sold wine (and various Whiskies) at his shop in Perth. When <em>Queen Victoria</em> came around in 1842, he was picked to supply wine to her party. In 1860, during the <em>French Wine crisis</em>, his son <em>William</em> started blending his own Whiskies and a few decades later, his nephew created a blend he called <em>The</em> <em>Grouse</em>. Soon, the blend became a big deal and the family renamed it to <em>The Famous Grouse</em>. 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.</p><p>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 “<em>older millennials”</em> 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” <em>Oloroso Sherry casks</em> 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 <em>Gold</em> at the 2020 International Sprits Challenge, <em>Double Gold </em>at the 2019 SF World Spirits Competition, plus the <em>Chairman’s Trophy </em>as well as <em>96 Points</em> at the 2018 Ultimate Spirits Challenge.</p>
