Glen Grant Distillery is a Speyside malt whisky distillery situated in Rothes. Established in 1840 by brothers James and John Grant, the business prospered and in 1897 Glen Grant No. 2 distillery was established across the road in order to meet the high demand for Glen Grant whisky. During the late nineteenth century a Victorian garden was laid out in the valley behind the distillery and is now open to distillery visitors. Glen Grant Distillery has a visitor centre and offers distillery tours. Glen Grant Distillery participates in the Spirit of Speyside Whisky Festival.
Nose: Dark chocolate with a peppermint edge. Whiffs of cereal notes and some vanilla. A hint of ground coffee and banana.
Taste: Waves of blackcurrants, blaeberries (wild summer fruit), supported wonderfully by a smoky / menthol note. Spicy with liquorice and aniseed notes.
