Yesterday at Hard Rock Cafe Bali, whisky tasting, welcoming Glen Grant to Indonesia.

We tried three of their editions, available in 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, almost no bitterness, and sweet, like delicious gentle kisses, so easy to drink. @shilshil33 likes the 10 year. I’m more into the 12 year; more thick body, 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.

WHISKY TALK

A fun educational conversation about single malt Scotch whiskies—Speyside, Islay, Island, Highland, et al. We'll do a whisky tasting, too, so you have better understanding why Islay whisky (i.e. Lagavulin) usually have a smoky character, while Speyside whisky (i.e. Glenlivet) generally light and grassy.
