HIGHLAND LAIRD GLEN GRANT 2009 (16 YO) SHERRY BUTT – Scotch Whisky News
August 13th, 2025

Glen Grant – Aged 16 Years
From the storied Glen Grant distillery in Speyside comes an exceptionally rare release — a whisky nearly lost to time and circumstance. This 2009 vintage single malt was matured for 16 years in a first fill sherry butt, which upon inspection had been leaking substantially. What should have been hundreds of bottles was reduced to a mere 24, salvaged just in time by Bartels Whisky. With only 9 bottles now available for general release, this is not just a whisky — it’s a story and a rescue that provides a unique opportunity for the true connoisseur!
