GLEN GRANT 16YR

Glen Grant Single Malt Scotch Whiskey is made from crisp, Scottish barley, much of it still harvested from the same Morayshire fields that John and James Grant used nearly two centuries ago. Once the barley has been malted and mashed, it is fermented in washbacks made of Oregon Pine. While wooden washbacks are more expensive and difficult to maintain as compared to stainless steel washbacks, they absorb more heat generated during the fermentation process and thus, create a lighter and more rich Whiskey. Following fermentation, the wash is twice distilled, first through Glen Grants copper-pot wash still and then again through its spirit still. Each still is equipped with a purifier, which acts as small condenser and causes a portion of the evaporating vapors to be pumped back into the pot and then re-distilled. This purification process — Glen Grant in the only distillery in Scotland to use purifiers in both distillations — results in Whiskey that has a signature fresh and malty flavor. Once the Whiskey has been distilled, it is matured for 16 years in American oak casks that were previously used to mature bourbon. Glen Grant 16 earned the Double Gold Medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
