By Miguel in Tasting , Glen Grant

“First class Glen Grant! Invest in yourself with this whisky.”

Glen Grant 34 year 1975 Old Malt Cask
A very well-aged Glen Grant single malt whisky.

This was aged for 34 years in a refill hogshead before bottling in November of 2009 by Douglas Laing. A release of 278 bottles, distilled in April 1975.

A great example of what the Speyside style can achieve when aged in a traditional cask.

This dram has a amber-like color.

Nose (92): more than average. honey, candies, floral, vanilla, spices, cinnamon. Lovely! This is what you can expect from such old whisky.

Palate (91): smooth, powerful. honey, floral, citrus, candies, spices, vanilla.

Finish (90): long. candies, spices, floral.

So based on other whiskies I have already tasted I rate this Glen Grant 34 year 1975 Old Malt Cask with 91 points over 100.
