Customer Rating
“Thank you very much for the speed of your reply. Thanks for clearing that up for me. I'm not sure if you have seen any of the Penderyn Bottles and packaging for the Welsh Rugby Teams first Grand Slam for more than 25 years, Swansea and Cardiff City FCs promotion to the Premiership and other bottlings. They also use this style of stunning bottles and packaging. Wishing you a very Happy New Year, ddymuno blwyddyn newydd hapus iawn. ”

Description
Determined to give grain whisky the respect it truly deserves, William Grant & Sons are releasing a range of Girvan Patent Still Single Grain Whiskies, starting with this launch edition of their 25 Year Old, a UK exclusive.
The original Girvan Patent Still was built by William Grant's great-grandson, Charles Gordon, in 1963, when it was given the rather catchy name "No 1 Apps" (referring to the term apparatus). After distillation, this whisky was aged for a massive 25 years before being popped into some incredibly elegant bottles, which are then put into striking boxes that are decorated with metal badges and side panels.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Vanilla fudge, Werther's Original, touch of lemon and lime zest. Peppercorns, banana and honey.
Palate
Pleasant mouthfeel with some more vanilla and a little apricot.
Finish
Woody, sparkling water.
Overall
A well-aged grain whisky that's a big step up from the upcoming no age statement release.
