The Girvan Patent Still 25 Year Old Single Grain Scotch Whisky is a UK exclusive release from Grant's, introduced in 2013. This remarkable whisky marks the inaugural release in the Girvan Patent Still range, a prestigious line of single grain Scotch whiskies. Aged for 25 years, this whisky is a masterful blend of spirits matured in first and second-fill Bourbon casks, complemented by whisky aged in Sherrywood and virgin oak. The result is a complex and refined flavor profile that has captured the admiration of whisky enthusiasts worldwide.
Produced at the Girvan Distillery, located in the scenic Lowlands of Scotland, this grain whisky is typically a key component in the creation of Grant's blended Scotch. It is also sold to other blenders, further attesting to its high quality. The 25 Year Old Girvan Patent Still is celebrated for its sweet, fruity, and intricate flavors. It was first presented to the public at a masterclass during the 2013 Whisky Show, earning high praise for its exceptional taste and craftsmanship.

The whisky offers a rich and complex profile with notes of honey, toffee, dried fruit, vanilla, nutty flavors, marzipan, and apricot, with a long, sweet finish that has hints of spice and oak.
This whisky has been highly appreciated by reviewers for its smooth and elegant body, with a creamy vanilla and delicate bittersweet flavor. The nose reveals vanilla, dark rock sugar, and dark malt, while the palate is soft, creamy, and slightly peppery after 20 seconds. The finish is medium, with vanilla, delicate bitterness, and a subtle fruity note. Some reviewers suggested that a higher alcohol content could enhance its power and complexity, but overall, it is regarded as a very nice dram, offering a pleasant and surprising experience, and is considered a great value for its price.
