The family-owned William Grant & Son's distillery received top honours in various categories, which included Blended Whiskies, where Grant's Signature took Gold and Grant's Family Reserve, Grant's Ale Cask and Grant's Sherry received Silver. In addition, it has received a Gold Medal for its Grant's 25 Year Old, a unique blend, containing 25 of the world's most highly-prized distinctive malt and grain whiskies as well as the Grant's 18 Year Old in the category of whiskies aged up to 18 years.

In the No Age Statement category, Grant's continued to excel with Select Reserve, which was awarded the Gold Medal.

Also awarded Silver Medals were Grant's 8 Year Old and the Grant's 12 Year Old.

The Scotch Whisky Masters, launched in 2008, has become one of the most respected and high-profile blind-tasting spirits competitions in the world. It is the only competition that uses entirely independent judges and, as such, attracts vast numbers of entries every year.
