- Description
- Glen Grant's 10-year-old, bottled by the distillery in the 1980s, shows the Speyside house at an age where maturation begins to add real depth while character remains clearly defined. A decade in cask develops richer fruit and subtle spice alongside honey and light vanilla, with a warming mid-palate and gentle oak finish. The 43% ABV and careful distillery selection provide balance and substance without excess. An exemplary mid-range Speyside for those valuing consistency and refinement over novelty.
