Yesterday at Hard Rock Cafe Bali, a whisky tasting, welcomed Glen Grant to Indonesia.
We tried three of their editions, available on the market already: Arboralis (40% abv), 10 year (40% abv), and 12 year (43% abv).
All three are ex-bourbon casks. They are summery, quite light, with almost no bitterness, and sweet, like delicious gentle kisses, so easy to drink. Shil likes the 10 year. I’m more into the 12 year; they have a thicker body and are also a bit fiery and bitey, but they are delivered softly.
Smooth and subtle Speyside stuff. A good dram for warmer weather.
PS: The 15 and 18 year Glen Grant are coming soon, according to the distributor.
