Grant’s Summer Orange is a bright, summer-ready spirit drink built on blended Scotch whisky, designed to be easy to mix and instantly approachable. The profile is driven by zesty orange and fresh citrus lift, sometimes with a gentle citrus bitterness, while the whisky stays in the background as a soft, warming backbone. Think “whisky with a citrus twist” rather than a traditional whisky experience.
On the nose you’ll get vibrant orange zest and a touch of lime, followed by gentle vanilla and clean, grainy malt notes from the whisky base. The palate opens with juicy, zesty orange, then moves into a smooth sweetness with hints of vanilla and malt. The finish tends to balance fruity sweetness with subtle oak/whisky warmth, giving it a surprisingly lingering aftertaste for a flavoured spirit.
It’s made for simple serves: lots of ice in a highball, topped with lemonade or soda, finished with a fresh orange wedge. For extra bite, try it with ginger ale.
