Tasting note

Scotland's oldest continuously family-run blending house uses the knowledge of five generations to create this approachable dram. On the nose are aromas of cereal grain, white citrus, honey and brown sugar; on the palate it is medium bodied and warming with flavours of butterscotch, oatmeal, vanilla and honey.

Complex, clean and fruity. Grant’s Family Reserve is one of the world’s best loved Scotch whiskies and enjoyed in over 180 countries. Grant’s Master Blender skillfully blends around 25 of the finest single malt and grain Scotch whiskies to make Grant’s Family Reserve. The basis for the blend is the widely acclaimed Girvan grain whisky.

Medium amber colour; floral and pear aromas; light flavour with a slight sweetness

Family reserve is vacuum-distilled at a lower temperature to create a more delicate, deeper, and sweeter flavour profile. The nose is unmistakably Speyside with fluting malty notes and a clean aroma with a sweet, fruity edge. Intriguingly and deliciously structured, it has a firm mouth feel with banana/vanilla sweetness balancing sharper malty notes. Clean but very complex. A long, smooth lingering finish. Try making the Grant Sour Classic: Shake 2 oz (60 ml) Grant's Family Reserve whisky 1 oz (30 ml) lime juice, and 1 tsp (5 ml) sugar vigorously with ice in a shaker to dissolve the sugar. Strain into a cocktail glass and garnish with maraschino cherry. For more drink recipes, see our Drink Recipes page.
