Glen Grant 26 Year Old 1995 Cask Strength Collection Signatory 70cl, 49.4%
Tasting Notes
Colour: Bright gold. This is an inference based on bourbon-barrel maturation and bottle imagery rather than a formally published colour note.
Nose: Bananas, ripe green grapes, vanilla, butterscotch, chalk, and gooseberries. This is based on a published review note.
Palate: Creamy and slightly austere, with ginger, white pepper, oak, limoncello, plums, and a lightly leafy edge. This is based on a published review note, lightly cleaned into product-page form.
Finish: Medium to long, with gentle oak spice, citrus peel, orchard fruit, and a softly drying mature bourbon-cask character. This is an inference based on the published nose and palate notes rather than a separately published finish note.
Description
Glen Grant 26 Year Old 1995 Cask Strength Collection Signatory 70cl, 49.4% is a mature Speyside single malt Scotch whisky bottled by Signatory Vintage as part of the Cask Strength Collection. Distilled on 31 May 1995 and bottled on 12 April 2022, this 26-year-old release was bottled at its natural cask strength of 49.4% ABV after long maturation in bourbon barrels.
This bottling has the kind of detail that makes older Signatory releases especially attractive to enthusiasts: a proper 26-year age statement, triple-cask bourbon-barrel maturation, natural presentation, and a clearly stated limited outturn. Public sources list cask numbers 88236, 88237, and 88238, with a total release of 562 bottles.
The style looks bright, mature, and bourbon-led rather than sherry-heavy, with vanilla, orchard fruit, citrus sweetness, and soft oak sitting at the centre of the profile. That makes it especially appealing for drinkers who enjoy older Speyside whisky with elegance and freshness rather than heavier cask influence. The point about elegance and freshness is an inference based on the bourbon-barrel maturation and published review notes.
Why Choose Glen Grant 26 Year Old 1995 Cask Strength Collection Signatory
This is a strong Signatory bottling for customers who want mature Speyside whisky with proper release detail and natural presentation. It combines a 26-year age statement, 1995 vintage, bourbon-barrel maturation, cask-strength bottling, and a limited 562-bottle outturn in a release that feels refined rather than overworked by wood.

Collector’s Note
This is exactly the kind of Signatory bottling that appeals to indie-whisky buyers: a 1995 vintage, a 26-year age statement, a trio of bourbon barrels, cask-strength presentation, and a clearly stated outturn of 562 bottles. Even though it is not a single-cask release, the small three-cask format still gives it a much more limited and characterful feel than a standard batch bottling. The final sentence is an inference based on the release format and bottle count.
