This 2024 release of Glen Grant 25-year-old whisky, from the prestigious Speyside distillery, perfectly encompasses centuries old whisky making tradition, where the maturation in American oak ex-Bourbon barrels and Oloroso Sherry casks in the unchanging coolness of the traditional dunnage warehouses, preserves its defining character and aromas and leaves a whisky that is smooth, rich and exquisite in balance.
The bright gold whisky exudes enticing aromas of zesty orange, rich toffee and hard candy while the smooth velvety and well-rounded palate bursts with silky dark chocolate, zesty orange rind, rich oak and nutmeg, leading into a long enduring finish that delights with warming spiced nuances and a delicate touch of smoke. This intriguing and fascinating dram would make a luxurious present to any whisky connoisseur or lover of fine things.
John and James Grant applied for a distillery licence in 1839. Naming a distillery after yourself might seem a little egotistical, but these brothers were kind of a big deal, as proven by them paying to extend the Lossiemouth to Elgin railway so that it would reach their new enterprise in Rothes. John’s nephew took over the distillery in 1872. He was another James but was better known as “The Major”. An innovator and a socialite, he was well travelled, a keen hunter and was rumoured to have owned the first automobile in the Highlands. As well as building a second distillery across the road (which would later become known as Caperdonich) and pioneering the export of his Scotch, it was he who introduced the elegantly slender stills, which capture the finest vapours and create the fruitiness and ethereal lightness that has become Glen Grant’s signature. Today, Glen Grant is run by Dennis Malcolm, who was born on the distillery grounds and started his apprenticeship as a cooper there at 15 years of age in 1961. The brand is now owned by Campari, so as well as being one of the biggest selling Single Malts worldwide, it’s also extremely popular in Italy.
