Cuvée presentation

A single cask Glen Grant distilled in 1995, aged in a Bourbon cask and bottled in 2017. Wemyss Malts was founded in 2005 by William and Isabella Wemyss, descendants of the Scottish clan of the same name, on the land where Haig had built a distillery in 1840 in Fife. William uses his skills as a blender for the company, and Isabella selects the spirits. The creations – strictly blended malts – are produced in collaboration with experts like Charles Maclean. Each vintage has a unique identity that is communicated through the name, such as The Hive, Spice King and Peat Chimney. Today the business also bottles single malts, with expressive descriptions that resemble those of the Scotch Malt Whisky Society. Wemyss also plays a role in the Kingsbarn distillery in Fife. A limited edition of 253 bottles.

The distillery Glen Grant

Scotland, Speyside. Distillery operational. Owners: Chivas Brothers Ltd, Pernod Ricard

Glen Grant is a textbook case in the history of the Scotch whisky industry. For decades (and still to this day), the distillery's official label was found on both independent bottlings and the distillery's own bottlings. Some of the most active independent bottlers in the 50s and 60s included Gordon & MacPhail, Campbell, Hope & King (which also worked with Macallan for the bottling and distribution of its malt), Cadenhead, Robert Watson and R Moray Bonding. The result is a multitude of available versions, making it an enthralling dram to collect. As Glen Grant was a blender's malt (Chivas Regal, 100 Pipers, etc.), its owners concentrated on a more classic maturation method characterized by bourbon. Gordon & MacPhail for their part decided to specialize in versions aged exclusively in ex-sherry casks. It was a smart move and their vintages casks became highly prized by whisky enthusiasts and collectors across the world.
