Glen Grant Crowns Glasshouse Collection With 25 And 30 Year Old Malts
The Glen Grant Distillery, nestled in the heart of Speyside, has released the latest and final installment in its Glasshouse Collection, which include the oldest single malts of the brand’s regular line. The Glen Grant 21-Year-Old is joined by The Glen Grant 25-Year-Old and 30-Year-Old Single Malt Scotch Whiskies to form a trio of old and ultra-aged whiskies.
The Glasshouse Collection was born from the legacy of The Glen Grant’s visionary forefather James ‘The Major’ Grant. An avid traveler, ‘The Major’ was a charismatic and eccentric innovator, voyaging to destinations around the world – from Southern Africa to the peaks of the Himalayas. With every adventure, he collected flowers and plants, bringing them back to Scotland and his vast Victorian-inspired glasshouse, built in 1886 to protect and nurture the most precious and delicate plants, just as the distillery’s warehouses have done with these exquisite spirits for decades.
The collection marks a significant milestone for The Glen Grant, as legendary Master Distiller Dennis Malcolm OBE approaches his retirement after over six decades in the Scotch whisky industry. The Glasshouse Collection will be the last whiskies to be released under Dennis’ stewardship, but his legacy will be upheld and honored by his successor Greig Stables, who has worked closely with Dennis over the last 18 years and played a pivotal role in the creation of the new collection.
The Glasshouse Collection will be available in select markets worldwide, including the U.S, U.K., and Asia beginning in 2024. Joining the 21-Year-Old (RSP $360 USD), The Glen Grant 25-Year-Old will be available at an RSP of $1,000 USD and The Glen Grant 30-Year-Old at an RSP of $3,000 USD.
