 |

Glen Grant has unveiled a new look for its whisky range and they have also expanded the range by adding three new whiskies to the current range, these are the Glen Grant 12 Year Old and Glen Grant 18 Year Old which will join the core range and the Glen Grant 12 Year Old Non Chill-Filtered which will be exclusively available in travel retail.

The first thing I noticed is The Whisky Exchange is charging £5 more than the £37.40 RRP for the Glen Grant 12 year old, then offering free postage for orders over £40, so not really free delivery from TWE.
Still sound worth trying, cheers for your reviews William. |

| The travel retail 12 sounds like a good buy. |

| I'm flying from London to Edinburgh in a few days, any idea whether the 12 NCF will be on the shelves yet? |

| These do sound good to me, I would guess it will be some time before the new Glen Grant whiskies are available here. |

The info I received said all the whiskies would be available from June. It is World Duty Free (World of Whiskies) at Edinburgh airport, they can sometimes be slow to add new whiskies to the shelves but you never know you may get lucky although it is not listed on their website yet.

| Both 12 year olds sound worth a shot especially the 12 NCF. I doubt if Tesco could sell much of the 18 year old with a £110 price tag |

| Hopefully World of Whiskies have the 12 NCF by July as I have a few flights then. |

I hope he gets a bottle Mac, I passed through World of Whiskies at Glasgow airport this morning and there was no sign of it and the girls at WoW hadn't heard of it and they usually know if a whisky is coming soon.

I received an amendment from Glen Grant today, the Glen Grant 18 will now be available from The Whisky Exchange and not Tesco as originally stated in my review.
