Glen Grant Exploration No.1 Single Malt Scotch

Glen Grant Exploration No.1 is a limited edition Speyside single malt Scotch whisky matured in bourbon barrels and finished in rum casks, bottled at 48% ABV and non-chill filtered for added flavor and texture.

This is not a typical Glen Grant profile.
You’re getting a brighter, fruit-forward whisky with a tropical twist driven by rum cask finishing.

Why Buy Glen Grant Exploration No.1

This bottle is about stepping outside traditional Scotch profiles.

You’re getting:

• a limited edition release from the Exploration Series
• rum cask finishing that adds sweetness and tropical depth
• higher proof (48% ABV) for stronger flavor delivery
• non-chill filtered for fuller texture
• a unique alternative to standard Speyside whiskies

It’s a clear departure from the usual light, orchard-fruit style.

What Makes This Scotch Different

Most Speyside Scotch leans toward apple, pear, and light oak.
This release shifts that profile into something more expressive.

Key characteristics:

• aged first in bourbon barrels, then finished in rum casks
• introduces tropical notes like banana, pineapple, and brown sugar
• part of a limited Exploration Series inspired by global flavor discovery
• maintains Glen Grant’s clean, aromatic base while adding richness

This is a fusion of classic Scotch structure and rum-driven sweetness.
