- Description
- A 1949 vintage matured for 65 years and bottled in 2014, this Gordon & MacPhail Rare Vintages release represents whisky from Glen Grant's pre-war era. Sherry cask influence and exceptional age have created something austere and historically profound, with the spirit's core character deepened rather than masked by wood. At 40% ABV, its elegance and restraint reflect an earlier distilling philosophy. For committed collectors of historic Speyside.
