Delhi ? Glen Grant?s new range of aged single malt Scotch Whiskies once again took home top honours in Jim Murray?s latest edition of his hotly anticipated Whisky Bible. Glen Grant 18 Year Old, the rarest variant in the range, was named ?Scotch Whisky of the Year? by influential whisky writer Jim Murray, taking home the top prize in the category for a second year in a row. The Speyside malt again took its place as one of the top three whiskies in the world, even as Jim tasted through more than a thousand new entrants for the latest edition of his influential guidebook. He says: ?Once more Scotland owes a debt of honour to the celebrated Glen Grant distillery which again displayed Speyside whisky in its most sparkling light.?
Glen Grant 18 Year Old also won ?Single Malt of the Year? and ?Best Single Malt 16-21 Years.? Other expressions in the range to take home top honors in the latest Whisky Bible include Glen Grant?s most awarded expression, the 10 Year Old, which for the sixth consecutive year won the coveted Single Malt of the Year 10 Years and Under (Multiple Casks) category.
Jim Murray\'s Whisky Bible is the world?s biggest-selling and most influential annual whisky guide. Industry renowned, the compact guide contains roughly 4,500 detailed, professionally analysed and easy to understand tasting notes on the world\'s leading and lesser-known whiskies. Each whisky is tasted by Murray himself and graded with an overall score out of 100.
Founded in 1840 by brothers John and James Grant in Rothes, in Speyside, Scotland, Glen Grant boasts a remarkable, double distillation process, which sets its award-winning Single Malts apart from the competition. Created using tall, slender stills and distinctive purifiers, introduced over a century ago by the ingenious James \'The Major\' Grant and still used to this day, it captures only the finest vapors, producing the refined and seductively smooth taste for which Glen Grant is renowned.

Dennis Malcolm, Glen Grant?s Master Distiller, commented: ?We were beyond humbled last year to be named ?Scotch Whisky of the Year?. With all of the amazing whiskies that come from our wee corner of the world, winning this award twice in a row is nothing short of astonishing. We take so much pride in creating our unique golden liquid, and we?re happy to see that the consistent quality these beautiful products continues to be recognized by industry legends like Jim Murray.
