Review of Grant's
Triple Wood the new name for the Grant's
Family Reserve.
 Grant's
Triple Wood is not an new whisky, it is
the new name for Grant's iconic
signature blend, Grant's Family Reserve.
The renaming move is part of a overhaul
of the Grant's blended Scotch whisky
also sees three new whiskies joining the
range.
The reasoning
behind the move to rename the firmly
established and very popular Grant's
Family Reserve to Grant's Triple Wood is
to emphasise the whisky making process
and the three types of cask which goes
into creating the smooth, rich and
mellow whisky - Virgin Oak which
provides spicy robustness, American Oak
lending subtle vanilla smoothness and
Refill Bourbon bringing brown sugar
sweetness.
Grant's Triple Wood is bottled at 40%
ABV and will be available from all major
retailers in 70cl and 1 litre bottle
sizes at a RSP of £15.00 (70cl) and
£19.50 (1 litre).
William
Morrison's Tasting Notes:
Nose:
An enticing balance of sweet malt,
slightly oak infused pear, vanilla and a
delicate floral note in the background.
Taste:
Smooth, malty rich, a lovely gentle
vanilla sweetness, delicious pear and a
touch of raisins, a little oak and
just the very faintest hint of smoke.
Finish:
Long, the vanilla transforms to caramel,
the pear fades leaving a little drying
oak.
Comment:
A new name but still the same quality and
most importantly, enjoyable, everyday
dramming whisky and you are unlikely to
find a better Scotch blended whisky at
this price point. Simply a lovely
balance of different oak aged grain and
malt whiskies.
