Glen Grant is a highly respected distillery in Scotland, located in Rothes, Speyside, known for its superior single malt Scotch whisky. Established in 1840 by brothers John and James Grant, the distillery takes advantage of the pure water from the nearby river and the accessibility of barley from the fertile fields of Speyside.
Today, Glen Grant remains a prominent name in the whisky industry, recognized for its light, fruity, and refined flavors that are characteristic of Speyside single malts. Their products frequently win awards, and the distillery attracts visitors from around the world who come to experience the history and production process and to savor the unique character of their whisky.
To celebrate the 10th anniversary of Sansibar Whisky, The Whisky Agency released a single cask. They selected a 23-year-old Glen Grant that underwent aging in a sherry butt. Ultimately bottled at cask strength, it is a powerful whisky that is perfectly balanced.
The whisky boasts a full body, with clear wood aromas present. The sherry butt has done its job well, with marmalade, red apple, and stewed fruit notes, along with a slight smoky undertone. Each sip of this whisky becomes more enjoyable and reveals more of its character.
Over the years, Glen Grant has been known for its innovations in the distillation process, including the introduction of purifiers by James 'The Major' Grant in the late 19th century, which contributed to the unique, clean, and fresh taste of their whisky.
The ABV (Alcohol By Volume) is 53.2%.
There were 467 bottles released.
The bottle size is 700 ml.
This whisky features notes of marmalade, red apple, stewed fruit, chocolate, floral, strawberries, biscuits, rosebuds, dark oak, menthol, creamy cheese, whipped cream, musk, green herbs, brie cheese, laurel, and a whiff of ash.
This Glen Grant 1998 TWA Sherry Butt 10th Anniversary Sansibar is an exceptional single malt that showcases the distillery's commitment to quality and innovation. The influence of the sherry cask is evident in the rich, fruity notes and the balanced complexity. Each sip reveals new dimensions, making this a highly enjoyable and memorable whisky.
