About this whisky
- Malt type: Blended
- Region: Speyside
This distinguished Glen Grant single malt whisky, distilled in the 1980s, represents a cherished piece of Speyside whisky heritage from one of Scotland's oldest operating distilleries. Founded in 1840 by brothers John and James Grant, Glen Grant has been a cornerstone of the Speyside region, known for its innovative spirit-making techniques, including being one of the first distilleries to install electric lighting and the first to introduce tall, slender stills that would become their trademark.
Dating from a significant era in Scotch whisky history, this vintage bottling captures a time when Glen Grant was still under family ownership, before its transition to international ownership in the 2000s. The distillery's unique production methods, including their distinctive purifier pipes and special tall stills, combined with the use of the pristine water from the Glen Grant burn, created whiskies that helped establish Speyside's reputation as Scotland's premier whisky-making region.
