Tasting

How it drinks

Sight
Light gold; slightly deeper than the 10yo, bright clarity, thin-medium legs
Nose
Malted barley up front with toffee, honeydew, and a slight hint of ash. Honey'd malt, sugared almond, and ripe apple. Sweet and approachable with a gentle complexity
Palate
Barley, vanilla frosting, orange cream soda. Orchard fruits with orange and apple, a touch of pastry and icing sugar, rich sweet red apple notes. Medium body with the signature Glen Grant lightness and fruit-forward character
Finish
Medium finish with lingering toffee notes. Clean and approachable, gentle oak and vanilla fade. A step up from the 10yo in complexity and depth
