Originating from one of Speyside's most iconic distilleries, founded in 1839 by James and John Grant, Glen Grant has evolved through the ages under the visionary leadership of John "The Major" Grant and subsequent expansions. This evolution has solidified its status as a cornerstone of the whisky world, especially noted for its popularity in Italy during the 1960s, thanks to Armando Giovinetti's insight into the Italian palate's preference for young single malts.

The Scott's Selection range, introduced in the 1990s, is a tribute to the meticulous cask selection by Speyside Distillery Master Distiller, Robert Scott. This Glen Grant 1974 is a testament to Scott's expertise, offering a glimpse into the distillery's golden era with its rich, unadulterated flavors.
