Glen Grant Malt Whisky 10 years, 1.0L 40% History and production of Glen Grant Malt Whisky 10 years: As with many other distilleries in Scotland, the story of Glen Grant began illegally. The two brothers John and James Grant were actually smugglers and moonshiners, but decided to apply for a license in 1840. They chose the small town of Rothes, on the banks of the River Spey, as the distillery location. The nearby barley fields, the easily accessible port in Garmouth and, last but not least, the clear waters of the Spey made Rothes an ideal location for whisky distillers. A lot has happened at Glen Grant since then. The owners have changed frequently; Glen Grant currently belongs to the Italian Campari Group. With currently eight stills and an annual output of almost six million litres, Glen Grant is now one of the largest distilleries in Scotland. The Glen Grant Malt Whisky 10 years is part of the distillery's standard range and is considered one of the most popular single malt whiskies ever. It matured for at least ten years in selected ex-bourbon barrels made of American oak and has a fruity, spicy aroma and taste profile.

Glen Grant Single Malt Whisky 12 years 1.0L 48% Whisky from Scotland When the distillery was founded in 1840, it was owned by the Grant brothers John and James. Like many other distilleries, it started out in the tradition of illegal work, but then became the first legal distillery. The brothers chose their location with the best of their knowledge and conscience. In the immediate vicinity of the distillery there is a direct connection to the port in Garmouth and the River Spey, as well as plenty of fields in the area. A good 100 years later, the company merged with JG and Georg Smith to form 'The Glenlivet & Glen Grant Distillers'. As the company's history progressed, the distillery was taken over by many others, including Chivas Bothers/Pernod Ricard in 1977 and the Campari Group in 2005. The only thing that has remained with the Glen Grant distillery, along with many others that have merged, is the name of the founders and its fame with a place among the top 5 best-selling distilleries in the world! 12 year old malt whisky This 12 year old from Glen Grant not only impresses with its fantastic light golden color, but also has a lot to offer in terms of aroma and taste. There is a pleasant aroma of fruit from the orchard, almonds and citrus fruits. These delicate notes continue on the palate, complemented by baked apple pie and caramel, and the 12 YO malt whisky ends with a long-lasting fruit aroma and a balanced spiciness.
