As The Famous Grouse announce the release of 2 new TV ads to grace our screens this Christmas, with the first ad set to air tonight I thought I would take a look through the Famous Grouse TV ads past & present.

For over 20 years now Scotland's most famous bird, Gilbert The Famous Grouse, the iconic bird which adorns every bottle of Scotland's favourite blended whisky, has entertained us in numerous Famous Grouse TV Adverts. To mark the launch of the latest 2 new Famous Grouse TV ads I have edited together all the Famous Grouse TV adverts from over the years which I could get my hands on, 39 in total. Pour yourself a dram of Famous Grouse and sit back and enjoy.

You can view the ads here:

A great compilation, I don't recall The Silver Grouse, when was that available.

Cuba, The Silver Grouse was released in 2005 to celebrate the 25th year of The Famous Grouse being the number one Scotch Whisky in Scotland. It was a 12 year old blended malt bottled at 45% ABV.

They actually emphasised on the label that it was chill filtered, promoting it like chill filtering was something special. They stated on the label that the Silver Grouse has been "Super Chill Filtered" at temperatures as low as -8°C degrees. It can still be found in whisky shops.

Great stuff William, I have watched them a couple of times tonight while enjoying a dram of Highland Park which should be a good match considering they put a bit of HP into the Famous Grouse although I doubt they put any of the 18 year old which I am drinking into it.

I do miss the Famous Grouse 12 Gold Reserve, a shame they done away with it.
