A new world record is set

The Famous Grouse has unveiled a 228 litre bottle of its blended Scotch whisky – the largest bottle of whisky in the world.

The record was awarded by an official Guinness World Record adjudicator as the brand marked its 107th birthday and The Famous Grouse Experience celebrated 10 years since opening at Glenturret Distillery, Scotland. Here the five feet five inches tall bottle, hand-blown by Czech glass manufacturer BOMMA, will be kept on display.

The Famous Grouse takes the world record from Jack Daniel’s which entered the Guinness World Record Book last year with a 184 litre bottle.
