The distillery is focused on the blended whisky Famous Grouse of which it has a visitors centre named ‘The Famous Grouse ’ which attracts over 120,000 visitors annually. Touser, the distillery cat (1963 – 1987), was born in the still hose and was said to be the greatest mouser ever. She is on record as having disposed of 28,899 mice (though it is not clear who was doing the counting). Expect a mellow, full bodied and smooth dram.
