The oldest Glen Grant expression ever bottled

Stunning single malt whiskies that feature spirit from Glen Grant distillery have been a recurring and popular theme in the Gordon & MacPhail story. This release - our Gordon & MacPhail 1948 from Glen Grant Distillery - is the oldest ever expression. At 70-Years-Old, it delivers vibrant notes on the palate, with a complex and rewarding finish that endures.  

Nose

Initially sweet – vanilla fudge, strawberry, and raspberry nuances develop into thick apricot jam. Waxy polish aromas emerge and mix with cinnamon and candied orange peel. Gentle and lingering smoky traces complement the balanced mature oak notes. with time, a subtle, fresh mint note unfolds.
