Grant’s Blended Scotch Whisky The Family Reserve | NV | 1.75 L.

WE92 Wine Enthusiast 9/1/2011

"A suave and smooth mix of Dufftown and Speyside Scotches. The burnished copper spirit has lively orange peel, butterscotch and baking spice notes and a buttery finish. Good value." (92 pts.)

"The muted nose features scents of heather honey, oak and dry breakfast cereal. Palate is very nice with floral, intensely grainy and off-dry flavors; midpalate displays harmonious flavors including black pepper, honey, light caramel and wood resin. Ends with no single component dominating." (85–89 pts.)

"If that doesn’t have all the charm and floral qualities of Speyside single malts such as Glenfiddich and Balvenie I’ll eat your tam-o’-shanter. William Grant’s Family Reserve tastes like elegant Speyside malts because they are the backbone of this overlooked blend." (85–89 pts.)
