Glen Grant Gordon & MacPhail Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky 52 Year Old · 1954 Vintage
Out of stock
A Glen Grant single malt bottled by Gordon & MacPhail, this 52 year old was distilled in 1954 and bottled in 2006 after extended maturation in oak, presented at 40 % ABV.
Decades in oak bring refined wood influence to Glen Grant’s elegant Speyside style, gently smoothing and integrating its core fruit character while adding layers of vanilla, subtle spice and delicate dried orchard notes.
The distillery’s signature floral and soft malt sweetness are woven through a mellow, exceptionally mature profile that reflects both long maturation and classic balance. Releases of this age are rare and prized for their nuanced depth and timeless refinement.

Nose
Elegant wood influence rises from the glass, gently enveloping Glen Grant’s delicate fruit with warm vanilla and subtle spice. Floral notes, dried orchard fruit—apricot and pear—drift through a soft malt sweetness, all woven with quiet oak. A poised, timeless bouquet that speaks of decades in cask.
Palate
Silky and refined on the palate, polished oak envelops Glen Grant’s floral Speyside character. Orchard-fruit sweetness blends with vanilla, while subtle spice and dried-fruit notes add quiet depth. The texture is smooth and balanced, finishing with a gentle warmth that lingers gracefully.
Finish
Long and refined, the finish slowly fades with softened oak, vanilla and subtle spice, while delicate dried orchard notes and a whisper of floral malt sweetness linger in an elegant, mellow finale.
