Glen Grant 1953 Official Tasting Notes

Read More »



Aroma with water

Very rich with hints of big ripe oranges. Aromas of highly polished hardwood floors and comfy old leather armchairs. Some heathery notes and a touch of menthol. Some vanilla notes develop.



Taste without water

Very, very fruity - juicy oranges explode throughout the mouth! A smoky note develops. Hints of dark chocolate and toasted malt.



Aroma with water

'Old' notes remain - leather-bound ledgers, tobacco (cigar boxes) - a dry fruitiness (dried apricots) combines with a ground coffee note.



Taste with water

Menthol flavour evident initially with a hint of smoke. Smooth sweetness slides around the mouth and reveals a more subtle soft fruity note - pears and peaches.
