Glasgow Distillery Co Ltd 1770 Peated Single Malt Scotch Whisky

46% abv

Vol- 70cl

Matured in first-fill ex-sherry casks and finished in virgin oak. This young, smoky single malt Scotch whisky is vibrant, sublime, sophisticated smoke and cultivated, eccentric and edgy, down-to-earth and highbrow … all at the same time!

Nose: chimney wood, curry powder and dried fruits (orange slices, apple chips, apricot bits). Furthermore, there are all kinds of herbal notes fennel, sage, nut wedges, barley, tobacco and diesel fumes. The peat is not overly strong, but it is clearly there. It is ashy, heathery and also a bit medical.
Palate: is dominated by the virgin oak casks. They set the general direction, whereas the sherry casks add some individual touches here and there. Above all, I get cough candy, pine cones, black tea, licoric, fennel, oily and metallic. After a while, some softer notes appear, too: strawberry creme, butter cookies and sweet almonds.
Finish: Mid-long; becoming sweeter. The cough candy, the pine cones and the fennel remain. Now, they are joined by marzipan, gobstoppers and soft fruits. There’s a thin layer of fumy smoke, too.

Embracing the pioneering spirit of Scotland’s first licensed distillers, The Glasgow Distillery Company adopts its name from one of Glasgow’s original distilleries. In 1770, The Glasgow Distillery Company was founded at Dundashill and remained active until consequent closure at the beginning of the 20th Century.

In 2014 The Glasgow Distillery Company re-opened becoming the first Single Malt Whisky Distillery in Glasgow for over 100 years. The Glasgow Distillery Company is re-establishing the metropolitan Scotch Malt Whisky tradition alongside the great whisky regions and bringing Glasgow Malt Whisky back to life!

The distillation takes place in copper stills named after family members of the three founders, “Annie”, “Mhairi” and “Tara”.
