Exploration Nº1
The Glen Grant Exploration No.1 is a tale of sweet, complex flavours of tropical flair, with notes of spice, rich dark sugar and ripe banana, achieved only by a finish in rum casks.
The Glen Grant Exploration Series celebrates ‘The Major’s’ own journey of discovery in his worldly quest to uncover unique flavours. The inaugural limited-edition release, Exploration No.1 showcases our delicately aromatic and fruity signature character, finished in exquisite rum casks, bottled at 48% ABV and non-chill filtered. After maturation in bourbon barrels, the whisky is transferred into the finest rum casks for finishing, resulting in a tropical influence of spice, rich dark sugar and ripe banana.
From the vibrancy of our delicately aromatic spirit defined by a distinctive fruity character, the finish on these whiskies tells a story of rich layers of added flavour from the specific cask selection, enhancing the intensity of each unique taste
experience.
