GLEN GRANT 18 Years Old
Is it worth the price?
GLEN GRANT 18 Years Old is a Speyside single malt Scotch from the Glen Grant distillery, bottled at 18 years old. Tasters score it 4.9 out of 5 across 9 reviews. It is tracked at 3 retailers, ranging from €104.95 to €130.00, while the valuation model estimates a fair price of around €139.97. That is 0.91× the model estimate — almost exactly what its age, strength and house predict, with no meaningful brand premium. The estimate is fitted on age, bottling strength and the distillery's other prices; community ratings add no measurable signal to it, so this is not a quality judgement. Typical error is around ±65%, so read the verdict as indicative and trust it most at the extremes. Of the 2 Glen Grant bottlings priced here, this is the weakest value.
