Glen Grant 18 Years Old Speyside Single Malt [700ML]

Description

What makes a Speyside single malt worthy of being called “the best Scotch whisky in the world” for four consecutive years?

Glen Grant 18 Years Old represents the pinnacle of Speyside craftsmanship, earning this prestigious title through its exceptional 18-year maturation in hand-selected ex-Bourbon barrels and remade hogsheads. This award-winning expression showcases the distillery’s signature purifier system – unique copper purifiers attached to their tall pot stills that create an extraordinarily clean, delicate character. For comparison with other premium aged expressions, consider the Highland complexity of Dalmore 21 or the gentle Speyside character of Tomintoul 16.
