Product Information

Conclusion: This is a lovely whisky with straight forward and balanced flavors that create a pleasant sipping experience. The use of first-fill ex-bourbon barrels give loads of interesting sweet notes. This is an approachable whisky and a good candidate for “New-to-Scotch” drinkers who want something that’s a step up from entry level malts.

Born at The Glen Grant distillery in 1946, few in the worldwide spirits industry share the whisky-industry lineage of Dennis Malcolm. Following in the footsteps of his father and grandfather before him, he got his start at age 15 as apprentice cooper and later, as a manager supervising the growing company's nine distilleries. In his current role as Master Distiller, Dennis has been an integral part of the brand and part of its history, maintaining the malt's distinctive character, all the while innovating and growing the range of award-winning expressions, including the newly introduced Arboralis and core expressions aged 10, 12, 15, and 18 Years. Reflecting on his diamond anniversary, Malcom remarks, "It's never been a job to me, it's been a way of life. I don't like my actual birthday -that makes me a year older. But I like my milestones with Glen Grant because it's a year longer than I'm here. I can keep doing what I was destined to do.

A visit to The Glen Grant is never complete without a walk through our ‘Garden of Splendours,' our 27-acre Victorian garden cultivated with eclectic plants from the Major’s adventures around the world. It is the only garden of its kind in Scotland. SINGAPORE (2 November 2021) – The Glen Grant, the 181 year-old distillery hailing from Speyside, proudly announces the launch of The Glen Grant® 15 Years Old Single Malt Scotch in Singapore, broadening the brand’s global footprint. The Glen Grant 15 Years Old is crafted by Master Distiller Dennis Malcolm – Scotland’s longest serving distiller – at 50% ABV ‘Batch Strength’, resulting in an intensified expression of The Glen Grant’s signature style.

The Glen Grant's story began in 1840, in Rothes, Speyside – Scotland's premier region for Whisky production; by brothers John and James Grant. Still produced in Rothes today, The Glen Grant holds a range of prestigious industry awards and is world renowned for its consistent quality across its aged variants. The elegant and seductively smooth taste for which The Glen Grant is famous is the result of the innovative tall slender stills and revolutionary purifiers that James 'The Major' Grant, son of founder James Grant, was one of the first to introduce over a century ago. Still used to this day, this lasting legacy continues to distinguish the brand.
