G&M_Private Collection_Glen Grant 1978_CS_44.5 (20192401) SML BOX.jpg

The Gordon & MacPhail 1978 from Glen Grant Distillery has been matured in a refill American hogshead cask, giving it flavours of poached pear and spicy ginger on the palate, with a hint of mature oak on the finish.

Nose

Sweet honeyed aromas initially; caramelised apple and pear follow in close succession. Soft menthol notes emerge and unfold into fragrant autumnal notes of dried meadow hay and beeswax polished oak.

Taste

Smooth and creamy; poached pear flavours infuse with toasted oak and drops of spicy ginger. Notes of sweet dried tobacco develop and combine with aged leather. Underlying hints of lime zest add a freshness.

Finish

Medium in length; warming pepper balances mature oak whilst fresh citrus highlights endure.
