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.
