Grant’s Triple Wood 12 Years Old is a blended Scotch whisky produced by William Grant & Sons in Scotland. It’s matured for a minimum of
12 years across
three different types of oak casks: American oak (virgin), refill bourbon barrels, and ex-sherry casks. This multi-wood aging gives it a layered character—marrying sweetness, fruit, and spice—designed to sit above entry-level blends while remaining versatile and accessible. It is bottled at
40% ABV.
Tasting Notes:
-
Appearance: Golden amber with warm tones; clear and inviting.
-
Aroma: Sweet vanilla, dried fruits, caramel; hints of oak spice and sherry influence.
-
Palate: Rich and smooth—notes of honey, vanilla, orchard fruit; balanced oak and spice; subtle layers from the three‐cask maturation.
-
Finish: Warming and long, with lingering sweetness and spice; oak echoes and a gentle spiced warmth.
Serving Suggestions:
Enjoy neat or with a single large ice cube to reveal its complexity. Also good with a splash of water to open up the aromas. In cocktails, it works nicely in whisky‐forward drinks that can carry its oak and fruit elements—try a simple whisky & soda with a twist of orange peel. Pair with dark chocolate, baked apple desserts, roasted nuts, or mature cheeses.
