Michael Jackson
77- Nose
- Peaty. I could almost smell the burn that flows through the distillery garden.
- Palate
- Syrupy. Surprisingly big and malty. Nutty. Dry toffee. A hint of liquorice. Rooty. Slight astringency.
- Finish
- Firm, peaty.
- Comment
- Glen Grant is a delicate whisky and does not always benefit from long maturation. This bottling is on the cusp. The distillery character can still be discerned, but only just.
Jim Murray
92- Nose
- The subtlest hint of medium roast Kenyan coffee and intertwines beautifully with the thick sherry.
- Palate
- Glorious array of sweet, demerara-style toffee sugars. Silky sherry and busy peppers, panning out into a raging sea of malty complexity.
- Finish
- Soft yet enormously long and playful.
- Comment
- The best Glen Grant of the last 20 years? Unquestionably. Near prefect stuff to the old school.
