A bold and exceptional expression from Glenmorangie’s Bond House No. 1 collection, the 1996 Grand Vintage Malt is a rare Highland single malt aged for 24 years.

Palate: Silky and decadent—rich red fruit, poached pear, marzipan, polished oak, and a touch of dark chocolate, finishing with ginger warmth

Finish: Long, refined, and harmonious, with lingering fruit sweetness, soft tannin, and gentle Bordeaux complexity
