This 65-year-old Glen Grant is still vibrant and fresh despite its age. The nose has touches of figs, dates, plums, molasses, hints of beeswax and orange peel, with just a whiff of cocoa powder. The taste is vibrant with notes of orange peel, tobacco, coffee beans, and touches of oak and licorice. The finish is long and fruity with a kiss of smoke. Outstanding! (April, 2024)
