Glen Grant Launches 170th Anniversary Super-Premium Commemorative.

To celebrate 170 years of uncompromising and passionate whisky making Glen Grant has created an inimitable experience with the launch of a 170th Anniversary Limited Edition Single Malt Scotch Whisky. A whisky lover's dream, the commemorative edition Grant has been specially crafted by Master Distiller, Dennis Malcolm, who has carefully selected the most valuable Glen Grant casks ranging 1976 to 1999 and married them together to create one unique Glen Grant expression.

"170 years on, we continue to build on the combination of tradition and innovation that the Grant brothers brought to their whisky making all those years ago," Glen Grant Master Distiller, Dennis Malcolm commented. "We wanted to celebrate the history of the brand whilst translating the unique Glen Grant approach into something new and unexpected with the 170th Anniversary Limited Edition whisky."

The commemorative expression is sure to be snapped by collectors, as well as imbibers. Big fruit notes, with a streak of peat through the middle of the taste profile.

It will be available starting August 2010 at a price of about 100 Euros, sold in a premium gift pack, across Europe, Taiwan, Duty-Free retail and the Glen Grant Distillery visitor centre in Rothes, Scotland, in a 70 cl bottle.
