Description
Gordon & MacPhail's 1951 Glen Grant, a marriage of two sherry butts bottled in 2013 at 62 years old, represents whisky archaeology at its finest. Seven decades of maturation have created a spirit of immense complexity, with layers of dark dried fruit, leather, walnut, and polished oak, while the core malt character remains discernible beneath the wood influence. The palate is dry and contemplative, with a finish that slowly unfolds. A museum piece for serious collectors of historic Speyside.
