Glen Grant

Glen Grant Distillery is a Speyside malt whisky distillery situated in Rothes.  Established in 1840 by brothers James and John Grant, the business prospered and in 1897 Glen Grant No. 2 distillery was established across the road in order to meet the high demand for Glen Grant whisky. During the late nineteenth century a Victorian garden was laid out in the valley behind the distillery and is now open to distillery visitors. Glen Grant Distillery has a visitor centre and offers distillery tours. Glen Grant Distillery participates in the Spirit of Speyside Whisky Festival.

Nose: Defined Sherry influences with stewed apples, beeswax and lemon. A subtle menthol edge develops.

Palate: The palate is peppery initially with orange and dark chocolate flavours. A bonfire ember edge lingers.

Finish: Long with a subtle smokiness.
