Glen Grant 60 Queen’s Jubilee

Country: Scotland

Region: Speyside

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: Gordon & MacPhail

ABV: 42.3%

Score: 94 Points

Gordon & MacPhail bottled this Glen Grant single cask in 2012 for Queen Elizabeth’s 60th anniversary on the throne, and the nose has a great balance with fresh fruits, mango, grapefruit, orange peel, ginger and graham cracker notes. The taste is vibrant and fruity with mango, grapefruit, and orange peel on top and hints of ginger and allspice underneath. The finish fades slowly with subtle fruits and hints of allspice. Outstanding! (January, 2013)
