Grouse Malt Half Price

voodoo

Just been to Tesco and Grouse Malt Whiskey is half price at £10.49. Never tried this before but it seemed a bargain.

Sounds like a bargain - did you notice what size it was?

josey1964

None on the web site at that price and also none at the full price of £20.98

Please be aware that Famous Grouse is a blend and not a single malt.

what's the difference between a blend and a single malt?

Single malt is made from one type of whisky,and blend is more than one.

Famous Grouse do produce a single malt so Voodoo is probably correct in the original post.
It's a WHISKY though, no E in it if we are going to be particular.
Whiskey doesn't come from Scotland.

Oh yes it does, I've bought my hubby a bottle of Jamesons from Tesco in Dundee.

okay, so is the quality the same in single malt and blended or is blended inferior?

Lynsey

I asked my hubby if he wanted this and he said no.
He only really drinks Jameson and a smokey whisky, Laphroaig (sp).

He reckons it's just taste. Blended whisky is supposed to be a blend of malts and rye, as say Bell's. Too complicated, I'll just stick to Vodka - I wonder if that comes from Scotland?? Might do, there's no "e" in it. :rotfl:
