William Grant & Sons, the well-known family-owned spirits company that owns and produces the Grants, Balvenie, and Glenfiddich brands, has launched a new line of single malt whiskeys called Aerstone to “simplify the category for consumers” and “focus on the impact of test malt and maturation on taste.”. The range includes two bottles – Sea Cask and Land Cask. Both appeared with a ten-year age statement and were created by Brian Kinsman, master blender for William Grant.
Sea Cask is a classic Speyside single malt that has benefited from maturation in the company’s coastal warehouses in Ayrshire. Land Cask is single malt peat produced using high mountain peat and matured inland.
