Glen Grant '50 Years Old' Single Malt Whisky (Pre-Order - over 2 weeks delivery time)

Having patiently aged in a single sherry butt for half a century, the 50 Year Old is an extremely rare, unique single malt. This robust, hand-selected single malt’s appearance proudly boasts shades of rich, warm golden brown tones, reminiscent of the 50 autumns that slowly passed in the Glen Grant Victorian Gardens during its maturation.   Filled on 28 October 1963 by a young Dennis Malcolm, sherry butt 5171 was left to mature for 50 years before being selected by the same man (now master distiller) and bottled on 25 November 2013. Just 150 decanters, replicas of the Glen Grant stills, were produced, each decorated with 18-carat gold and presented in a Scottish oak box. Bottled at a cask strength of 54.4%.   Its soft, delectable bouquet seduces the senses with alluring hints of toffee and caramel interlaced with subtle tones of sundried sultana and chewy apricot. The charming mouth-feel gently cascades on the palate with an array of sweet sherry notes infused with orange and baked apples. The perfect balance of rich and robust with smooth and soft flavours lingers in the long, full aftertaste.   Available: Number 10/150
