- Description
- Glen Grant's Director's Reserve selection at 20 years old and bottled at 43% ABV represents the distillery's judgment on its own refined character. At two decades of maturation, the whisky would display Glen Grant's hallmark honey and orchard fruit notes enriched by developing wood spice and subtle complexity without excessive oak dominance. The higher bottling strength compared to standard releases enhances the spirit's natural elegance while maintaining approachability. This suits both newcomers to premium Speyside and experienced drinkers seeking a balanced expression of mature, lightly-aged Glen Grant.
