Glen Grant Mr George Legacy Second Edition - Single Cask #3483 Whisky 64 Year Old · 1957 Vintage
Out of stock
he Mr George Legacy 1957 from Glen Grant Distillery celebrates Mr George’s long-term approach to maturation. Thought eccentric by some, Mr George would always give his whiskies all the time they needed, often longer than many thought sensible or even possible.
Achieving great quality and flavour takes time, and patience and trust in the process is still very much at the heart of Gordon & MacPhail’s ethos today.
Distilled on Thursday 10th October 1957 and spending its entire maturation in cask no. 3483, a first-fill Sherry butt, the second edition of the Legacy Series was bottled on Tuesday 9th November 2021 at a cask strength of 56.1% ABV.
On the nose, the rich mahogany whisky releases aromas of fruitcake, festive spices, marmalade and treacle. To taste, notes of morello cherries and garden mint greet the palate, followed by ripe red apple, citrus peel and subtle aniseed. It finishes in an explosion of flavour, with lingering notes of spice, forest fruits and charred oak.

Nose
Rich mahogany on the nose, with fruitcake richness, festive spices, marmalade and treacle. Warm, inviting and elegantly sherried, it hints at depth and sweetness to come.
