The Glen Grant The Visionary is an exceptional one-of-a-kind creation. This rare single malt is aged 68 years and is one of the oldest whiskies to be released by the distillery.
The Visionary by The Glen Grant is a one-of-a-kind rare single malt scotch whisky that is drawn from single oloroso sherry butt #835, laid down in 1955. It is the only bottle in existence from this special cask and bottled at 68 Years Old.
This true one of a kind is amongst the oldest and rarest whiskies to be released by The Glen Grant distillery and is presented in a singular hand blown battuto-cut magnum decanter. The innovative design captures the suspension of the spirit within the glass structure as if it was itself a rare plant or flower. A precious stone Malachite stopper and base reflect the influence of copper, celebrating the tall stills which have shaped the spirit.
The Visionary is paired with an all-encompassing, Scottish Speyside experience. The experience will include a visit The Glen Grant Distillery in Rothes, complete with a private tour of the distillery and historic gardens, dinner and tasting with Master Distiller Dennis Malcolm, OBE.
Glen Grant Distillery
In 1872, the eccentric James ‘The Major’ Grant explored the world in search of new flavours, bringing his finds back to The Glen Grant distillery to fill greenhouses with rare plants, flowers and fruits. His unusual collects ion grew into The Glen Grant’s Garden of Splendours – which still thrives today – and inspired a vision for a distinctive single malt scotch whisky that would stand apart from the rest.
During distillation, our taller, slender copper pot stills and water-cooling purifiers capture a finer, gentler spirit cut bursting with orchard fruits. Our whisky matures in traditional stone dunnage warehouses in the finest ex-bourbon and Oloroso sherry casks. The result is the signature aromatic and evocative taste profile at the heart of our whiskies, which delivers delicately fruity, floral, and nutty notes in every drop.
In the care of Master Distiller Dennis Malcolm OBE, The Glen Grant is estate bottled: created from barley to bottle on the grounds of our distillery The Glen Grant takes you on a journey to the Garden of Splendours in every sip.
