Information
About the producer

Scotland, Speyside. Distillery operational. Owners: Chivas Brothers Ltd, Pernod Ricard

Glen Grant is a textbook case in the history of the Scotch whisky industry. For decades (and still to this day), the distillery's official label was found on both independent bottlings and the distillery's own bottlings. Some of the most active independent bottlers in the 50s and 60s included Gordon & MacPhail, Campbell, Hope & King (which also worked with Macallan for the bottling and distribution of its malt), Cadenhead, Robert Watson and R Moray Bonding. The result is a multitude of available versions, making it an enthralling dram to collect. As Glen Grant was a blender's malt (Chivas Regal, 100 Pipers, etc.), its owners concentrated on a more classic maturation method characterized by bourbon. Gordon & MacPhail for their part decided to specialize in versions aged exclusively in ex-sherry casks. It was a smart move and their vintages casks became highly prized by whisky enthusiasts and collectors across the world.

About the wine

Gordon & MacPhail is widely considered one of the best independent bottlers in Scotland and is an expert in making the most of the raw materials distilled in prestigious regions of Scotland. Straight from its bonded warehouses in the heart of Speyside, this is a local whisky from the renowned Glen Grant distillery. In Scotland and abroad, blending and maturation are two separate trades from distillation, and Gordon & MacPhail is known for being one of the greatest specialists in the matter.
Here, this single malt Scotch whisky has slumbered for more than 40 years in casks previously used to produce sherry, a fortified wine from the south of Spain.
This ultra-rare spirit reveals a dark mahogany colour with light red hues. Despite its impressive age, this whisky distilled in 1962 retains extraordinary freshness, and Gordon & MacPhail have successfully managed to mature this whisky without overpowering its initial qualities. The complex aroma palette is well-balanced, featuring notes of candied orange peel, beeswax and spice bread.
Every bottle in the Private Collection is exclusive: the entire stock is bottled, leaving no more available after.
