A miniature bottle of Grant's Stand Fast Scotch whisky, sealed with a cork stopper. This was bottled and guaranteed by William Grants & Sons Ltd., Distilleries The Glenfiddch and Balvenie-Glenlivet. We estimate this was bottled in the 1950s.

This bottle is from a large collection of miniatures purchased by the seller at an auction in 1979. The collection is mainly comprised of blended Scotch whiskies and single malts bottled in the first half of the 20th century.

By the time William Grant & Sons released its first blended whisky brand, Standfast, in 1898, the company had already built two malt whisky distilleries, Glenfiddich in 1886 and Balvenie in 1893. Charles Gordon, son-in-law of William Grant, was employed as the company's first salesman in 1909, and by 1914 the firm had more than 60 agencies in 30 countries around the world. Aside from Standfast, which was named after the Clan Grant motto, other blended whisky brands include Grant's Best Procurable and Grant's Liqueur.
