Glen Grant 72 Year Old Gordon & MacPhail 1948
The nose is rich and powerful, delivering notes of Christmas cake, roasted almonds, cinnamon, dates and sherry. On the palate, expect a sweet entry, followed by a dry and tannic mid-palate, leading to hints of espresso, dark chocolate and spices. Only 290 decanters were released worldwide.

Glen Grant
Glen Grant was founded in 1840 by brothers John and James Grant, a pair of former illegal distillers and smugglers who had decided to establish themselves as legitimate whisky makers. The distillery eventually passed to Major James Grant, nephew of founder John Grant. James modernised the distillery in the late 1800s, adding electric light and introducing taller, more slender stills - a feature that still characterises the character of the spirit to this day.
Older bottlings of Glen Grant lean heavily on the use of ex-Sherry casks, but the recently launched core range tends to a lighter, fruitier style of single malt. Glen Grant is used extensively in Chivas blends and is widely available in the form of venerable old vintage bottlings from the Gordon & MacPhail. A core range features a 10 year old, 12 year old, 15 year old and 18 year old.
