The story
The brand was born from the company Matthew Gloag & Son in Perth, Scotland; the first registration of the blend dates to the late 19th century (The Famous Grouse was introduced around 1896–1897). During the 20th century the brand grew nationally and internationally; in 1970 ownership passed to Highland Distillers and, in 1999, to the Edrington group. It received a Royal Warrant in 1984. In September 2024 Edrington announced an agreement to sell the brand to William Grant & Sons; the transaction received regulatory approval in 2025.
Ageing
Maturation in oak casks; the individual components are aged in cask according to Scotch Whisky regulations and the blends are left to 'marry' before bottling (sources cite a 'marrying' period of up to about six months at 46% ABV for the marrying process).
