Trans Beverage, a premium liquor importer and distributor, announced on the 22nd that it will be launching the single malt whiskey brand ‘Glen Grant 25 Years’ in Korea. It was introduced as a limited-quantity collection made with the oldest aged whiskey from the Glen Grant Distillery. The domestic allocation is said to be 400 bottles. The price is known to be around 1 million won.
In particular, Glen Grant 25 Years Old is the first product to be introduced by the brand. Previously, Glen Grant 21 Years Old was the whisky with the longest maturation. With this product launch, Glen Grant has completed its lineup of high-age single malt whiskies consisting of a total of six products, following 10, 12, 15, 18, and 21 Years Old. Overseas, Glen Grant 30 Years Old was introduced together with Glen Grant 25 Years Old last month. In the high-age lineup, three ultra-long-aged whiskies of 21 Years, 25 Years Old, and 30 Years Old were organized into the Glen Grant Glasshouse Collection. The domestic release date and quantity of Glen Grant 30 Years Old have not been decided yet.
Glen Grant 25 Years is said to be receiving a lot of attention from not only Glen Grant enthusiasts but also whiskey lovers as a new high-end whiskey. Recently, the ultra-high-priced whiskey market has been growing explosively both domestically and internationally. Glen Grant introduced that Glen Grant 25 Years is characterized by the brand’s unique refreshing and fragrant puy and fragrance. Glen Grant founder ‘Major’ Grant is known to have collected rare plants while traveling the world. He also created the Glass House Collection, a line of aged whiskeys, inspired by the Glass House built in 1886. The 21 Years and 25 Years are included in the collection. Glen Grant indicates the time from the first light of the sun to dusk according to the whiskey maturation period, and the Glen Grant 25 Years, which is being released in Korea this time, is explained to express the time when the last sunlight of the day falls on the Glass House.
The top of the purple label of Glen Grant 25 Years is engraved with a mysterious plant image, which is said to symbolize the Himalayan blue poppy, which grows only in difficult survival environments. In fact, it is said that Grant, the founder of Glen Grant, was fascinated by the mysterious color and shape and collected blue poppies. It is completed through meticulous management and processing using premium Scottish barley ground directly on the distillery premises and water from the Back Burn River that flows through the distillery as the main ingredients.
The taste is said to have a bright golden color, a splendid floral aroma, citrus fruits, sweet candy aroma, velvety dark chocolate, refreshing orange peel, rich oak and nutmeg, etc., and it is said to have implemented a unique flavor and rich aroma. The finish leaves a faint aftertaste of spicy aroma and soft smoke, according to Glen Grant. The alcohol content is 46%, and the capacity is sold as a 700ml product. The purple label also emphasizes luxury.
“Glengrant 25 Years Old is characterized by its smooth and complex flavor and aroma that distillery experts have perfected through decades of research,” said a Trans Beverage official. “It can be considered the essence of Glengrant.”
