Tasting Notes

Colour

Deep amber with a burnished copper glow and mahogany undertones.

Nose

Intense sherry-dark sweetness greets the nose, with dried figs and raisins lacquered in caramel and toffee, brightened by orange zest and hints of dark chocolate. Layered notes of toasted almond and cedar swirl with spice and vanilla, all resting on polished oak with a faint waxy, grainy perfume that promises indulgent richness.

Palate

Silky, creamy entry of vanilla and toffee gives way to rich sherried fruit—raisins, fig and orange zest—woven with cocoa and almond. Spices drift in: ginger, a touch of cinnamon, underpinned by polished oak. The mouthfeel stays full and luxurious, finishing long with warm sweetness and a twinkle of citrus.

Finish

Long, velvety finish with pronounced sherry sweetness: dried figs and raisins, orange zest, dark chocolate, and toasted almond, mingled with warm spice and smooth oak. The warmth lingers, leaving a refined, chocolaty glow and a subtle, lingering nib of spice.

Girvan
(GIR-van) Girvan was built by William Grant & Sons in 1963 on the Ayrshire coast, reportedly in just nine months, and opened as the largest grain distillery in the world at the time. It was created to secure a reliable supply of grain whisky for the company’s blends, and it remains one of the most important sites in the William Grant portfolio. Although Girvan is less visible than malt distilleries with large official ranges, its role in Scotch whisky has been significant for decades.
