Glen Grant 18 Years

Glen Grant has long been admired for its refined, approachable style, and with this 18-year-old expression, the distillery from Rothes delivers something truly exceptional. This bottling is beautifully balanced, layered, and surprisingly fresh for its age. In fact, it earned the prestigious title of Scotch Whisky of the Year in Jim Murray’s 2020 WhiskyBible. Bottled in a generous 1-litre format, it’s a dram meant to be savoured—alone or in good company.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Delicate and inviting. Ripe peach, apple blossom, and vanilla blend seamlessly with soft honey, almond, and a touch of oak. A subtle floral hint adds finesse.

Palate

Smooth—velvety smooth. Flavours of apricot, pear, and crème brûlée are balanced with gentle spices like cinnamon and nutmeg. The mouthfeel is elegant, with a graceful interplay of fruit, sweetness, and oak.

Finish

Long and silky. Honey, vanilla, and a touch of toasted nuts linger beautifully. A whisky that walks beside you long after the sip is gone.
