Description
A 1951 vintage Glen Grant bottled by Gordon & MacPhail in 2011 at 60 years of age, this expression carries the weight of seven decades in oak. Glen Grant's elegant, light character would have deepened considerably through six decades of maturation, developing wood spice, subtle fruitiness, and the complexity that comes from prolonged contact with wood at low ABV. At 40%, this is a whisky for slow appreciation. It suits collectors documenting how Speyside whisky evolves across geological timescales.
