Description
Distilled in 1956 and aged 54 years in a single sherry cask before bottling in 2011, this Glen Grant exemplifies the deep reserves held by Gordon & MacPhail from Scotland's golden era of whisky production. The sherry maturation would have built considerable richness and complexity into Glen Grant's naturally poised character, developing layers of dark fruit, wood spice, and oxidative depth. At 40% ABV, this is a mature whisky requiring contemplation. It suits the collector with patience and appreciation for how time and wood build character into Speyside spirit.
