- Description
- Glen Grant's 1948 vintage, bottled by Gordon & MacPhail at 58 years old in 2006, stands as testament to the distillery's exceptional constitution under extreme age. Nearly six decades of maturation have created a complex, layered spirit of dried fruit, polished leather, dark chocolate, and subtle oak, with enough residual malt character to prevent wood dominance. The palate is refined and intricate, with remarkable persistence. A profoundly rare dram for collectors seeking genuine historic whisky.
