50 YEAR OLD BLENDED GRAIN SCOTCH WHISKY
31

50 YEAR OLD BLENDED GRAIN SCOTCH WHISKY

203 Bottles
/
50 Years Old
Blended Grain Scotch Whisky

WE HAVE ALWAYS CELEBRATED Scotch Whisky in all its forms: blends, single malts and, perhaps the least known category: grain whisky. Over the years, we have released three different single grains, each from a closed distillery.

Release No 31, however, is a truly beautiful, blended grain Scotch Whisky.

 

ABV : 49% (98º Proof)

“50 years of maturing in a cool climate have given this grain whisky a compelling depth and complexity with fruity overtones belying its age”

MORE ABOUT THIS RELEASE

Grain whisky is perhaps the closest in style to American whiskeys, such as bourbon, since it is made with a mixture of grains including corn and wheat as well as malted barley. 50 years of maturing in a cool climate have given this grain whisky a compelling depth and complexity with fruity overtones belying its age.

TASTING NOTES

COLOUR: A truly beautiful golden ambercolour, shimmering with long slow beading on the sides of the glass.

NOSE: A symphony of rich dried fruits with a background of hazelnut oil. The spicy scent of cloves, grass and cinnamon invite and entice, like a Moroccan spice market.

TASTE: On the palate we begin by tasting bright grassy notes – a surprising freshness after the spicy nose. Then, quickly, the deep, rich sweetness of the aged grains takes hold and we are once more wrapped in a velvet cloak of smooth, scented cinnamon, hazelnuts and a hint of figgy pudding.

FINISH: A soft, deep finish to linger over, this is a whisky full of surprise and delight. Aged grain whiskies are highly unusual, and this 50 year old blended grain is a masterful showcase for the sweet and charming nature of such spirits.
