Glen Grant Distillery underwent a significant ownership transition in 2018 when the Edrington Group announced its sale in June. After six months of speculation, the new owner was revealed in December as Hansjörg Wyss, the Swiss billionaire behind luxury crystal house Lalique. This acquisition marked Lalique's entry into Scotch whisky ownership, though the company possessed substantial industry experience. From 2006 to 2016, Lalique collaborated with The Macallan, crafting exquisite crystal decanters for the distillery's prestigious single malt releases through its wine and luxury goods subsidiary, Art & Terroir. The sale severed Glen Grant's long-standing association with Edrington's Famous Grouse brand, which had operated a popular visitor center at the distillery known as the 'House of Famous Grouse.' Under new ownership, the focus shifted to rebuilding Glen Grant as a standalone premium single malt brand. Lalique's investment of £15.5 million secured a 50% stake in the distillery, including one million liters of mature cask stock. Glen Grant maintains distinctive traditional equipment, notably Scotland's only remaining manually-operated 1.05-ton open-top stainless steel mash tun. The distillery features eight Douglas fir washbacks with an exceptionally long fermentation period of up to 120 hours, and a pair of copper pot stills. While the 2019 production target was 190,000 liters of new spirit, the new owners aim to increase annual capacity to 500,000 liters within the next few years without installing additional equipment. Historically, Glen Grant produced a heavily peated expression called Ruadh Maor at 80 PPM, though no peated production was scheduled for 2019. The appointment of former Macallan Master Blender Bob Dalgarno in 2019 signaled a new era for the brand. Under his expertise, Glen Grant planned to launch several new products in 2020. The core range includes Glen Grant 10 Year Old, Glen Grant Sherry Cask, Glen Grant Triple Wood, and Glen Grant Peated. Limited releases comprise Glen Grant 29 Year Old, Cameron's Cut, Jamieson's Jigger Edition, and the distillery-exclusive Peated Drummond Edition—a cask strength whisky crafted from 100% peated malt.

Blimey, this one's a proper ride 🤔 First thing that hits me is this dry, fino-sherry vibe – like an old white wine that's been sitting in the cellar for ages. Then there's walnuts, loads of them, and something leathery underneath. Weirdly reminds me of Vicks vapour rub at one point, but not in a bad way? There's hay and dried mushrooms doing their thing in the background. Gets a bit vegetal, almost like fresh eucalyptus leaves and mint. Green tannins giving it that slightly bitter edge. Oh and bananas – deffo getting banana skins again 😄 The finish is quite dry, coal notes coming through with a hint of lemon and cider. Bit of cough syrup sweetness trying to balance it all out. Honestly it's quite extreme but kind of fun at the same time. Not your everyday dram, that's for sure.

刚倒出来就闻到一股橡胶味,夹着点酸苹果和核桃。喝起来像是杯特别老的干白葡萄酒,带点柠檬皮和苹果酒的感觉。 中间能尝到点干牛肝菌的味道,让我想起上次喝到的那种Fino雪莉酒。口感有点干,像是泡过橡木,单宁还是绿的。 后段有点白胡椒的辣,还有点像止咳糖浆,黑巧克力的苦味冒出来。居然有点肉味,挺有意思的。最后嘴里留着点植物和桉树叶的气息,核桃味一直在。

Colour is gold. Nose has fresh mint, sour apples, and a hint of eucalyptus leaves. Taste is quite extreme – dry with green tannins, white pepper, and a leathery vegetal note. Sourness from lemons and cider, plus walnuts – bags of them. Reminds me of ultra-dry manzanilla or a very old dry white wine. Also get rubber, coal, and dried porcinis. A bitter touch like cinchona, and some tea. Finish medium long, with bitter chocolate and a cough syrup vibe. Bananas again, even the skin, and a plain 'Vicks' freshness. Fun but seriously dry! 😄

First sip is a bit of a shock – really minty, almost like chewing fresh leaves with a strong hint of that plain ‘Vicks’ chest rub. So dry it makes my mouth pucker, with a sharp white pepper kick right at the end. It's… extreme, for sure. The colour is a nice deep gold though. And then I get this weird but kinda cool leathery thing, mixed with something that oddly reminds me of cough syrup. There’s a sourness there too, almost meaty in a way? A bit of rubber comes through, but honestly, it’s part of the fun. The finish is all green tannins, and wait – now I’m tasting bananas again, even their skin! Like overripe ones. And tea. More leather, and bags of walnuts. Sour apples right at the very end, with something a bit like a fino sherry. Quite the journey. 🤔😅

Furst thing you get is a lovely whiff of honey’d malt and a wee bit of marmalade on toast. 🍊✨ Sip is soft, like melted brown sugar with a crack of black pepper. Then the oak creeps in – not heavy, just a whisper of vanilla and nutmeg. Finish lingers with a faint smokey prickle… not peat reek, more like a bonfire on a frosty evening. 🔥 Proper comfy dram, that.
