The Glen Grant has announced the release of The Glen Grant 30-Year-Old, the final and most-aged expression in the distillery’s Glasshouse Collection.
The Glasshouse Collection is inspired by James ‘The Major’ Grant, a pioneering figure in Glen Grant’s history. The Major was also a keen amateur botanist, who cultivated rare and delicate plants in vast greenhouses in the distillery’s grounds.
Each whisky in the collection represents a distinct moment in the passage of daylight, using light as a metaphor for the evolution of character within the cask. The Glen Grant 21-Year-Old embodies the First Light of dawn, the 25-Year-Old captures the warmth of Golden Hour, and now, the 30-Year-Old brings Twilight.
The Glen Grant 30-Year-Old offers intricate layers of oak, hints of nectarine, honey, and dried fruit. Bottled at 48% ABV, natural in colour, and non-chill filtered, it “mirrors the depth and tranquillity of twilight, as moonlight washes over the iconic glasshouse”.
Each whisky in The Glasshouse Collection is matured in American oak bourbon barrels and Oloroso Sherry casks within the walls of the distillery’s oldest traditional stone dunnage warehouse.
The Glen Grant 30-Year-Old is available from retailers including Hedonism Wines and Berry Brothers & Rudd with an RSP of £2,250.
