Glasgow 6 Years Old Amarone Cask Finish

ABV: 53% 70 cL

Glasgow 6 Years Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky represents a masterful marriage of three distinct cask influences. This expression began its journey on the 14th of April 2019 when it was distilled into first fill ex-Bourbon casks for five years, developing a rich foundation of vanilla and oak character. It was then re-racked on the 4th of June 2024 into premium Amarone Italian wine casks, introducing layers of dried fruit, dark berries, and subtle wine-forward complexity. Double distilled and unpeated, this whisky showcases the pure spirit character with elegant refinement. The three cask marriage creates a harmonious balance between the bourbon maturation's sweetness and the Amarone finish's sophisticated depth. Bottled on the 16th of March 2026 at six years old, this is a limited release of just 1,060 bottles.

Nose

Fresh and fragrant, with ripe strawberries and juicy cherries, complemented by soft toffee sweetness beneath.

Palate

Smooth and indulgent, unfolding with creamy vanilla, rich cherry and strawberry notes, layered with a nostalgic sweetness reminiscent of soft jellies and confectionery.

Finish

Gently lingering and well-balanced finish, with notes of ripe strawberry and vanilla cream give way to a dark chocolate and subtle earthy spice adding depth and warmth.

£62.00

Tax included.
