Description

 The nose is quite rich and full with a well-balanced sweetness. There are notes of musty attic with golden syrup and caramelised dark brown sugar. Hints of wood resins and sap protrude as well as touch of oily walnut with a good fruitiness. There are some chewy sherried sultanas for mastication.

The palate is of good body and quite rich. There are some good sweet barley notes with cut hay and greenness. Cut herbs emerge with notes of toasted oaken spice and a good peppery note. The finish is long and quite spicy with a whirling smoke and fino sherry note.

About this SPIRIT

Glen Grant Distillery, Speyside

Glen Grant Distillery, Speyside

Glen Grant, founded in 1840, is widely considered to be one of the finest single malts whiskies and is one of the few named after its original owner, Major James Grant, who also built Glen Grant No2 (later renamed Caperdonich Distillery) across the road.

The distilley used to belong to the Chivas and Glenlivet Group, property of Seagram, was bought by the Campari group in 2006.

A classic Speyside malt, Glen Grant has a range of incarnations, ranging from the well known younger versions, to the complex and stylish single vintage malts. Tastewise, it characteristically exudes nuttiness: hazelnuts when young, and almonds when aged.

A world class brand, with a particularly strong following in Italy, and an important component of the blended Whiskies of Chivas Regal.
