Character Notes
The anointed one,
smell of incense hanging in the air.
Though aged, and heavy
with the oppressions of time,
a graciousness and elegance remains.
The heart remains fragrant,
the grip on life strong.
A sense of order and calm;
of how things are meant to be.
by
DAVE BROOM

On all deservers."

“It was imperative that King Duncan held the requisite status and gentle character. Over the many years we’ve been searching for casks, we have, on occasion, been fortunate to find those truly rare occurrences of whiskies of great age that retain great elegance. This Glen Grant, distilled on Speyside in 1965, fits the bill perfectly: the beautiful light fruit of the spirit, the suggestion of forest floor, dusty books... an abundance of sophisticated flavours that are created only after decades in the finest wood.”
Oliver Chilton — Elixir Distillers
Cask Type: Single Cask Sherry Butt
