Glasgow Distillery

Glasgow Distillery 1770 Original

ABV: 46% 70 cL

Glasgow Distillery's inaugural expression, The Original, is a fresh and fruity single malt that combines the finest concerto malted barley with the purest Scottish water from Loch Katrine.


A minimum of 72 hours of fermentation combined with an extremely slow distillation has resulted in a fruity and delectably sweet new make spirit which has been matured in first-fill ex-bourbon casks before a finishing period in virgin American oak barrels. Bottled without chill-filtration or artificial colouring.

Nose

Dried dark fruits with tropical undertones on the nose, followed by hints of biscuit, oak and freshly cut grass.

Palate

Sweet butterscotch with a crème brûlée char on the palate. Hints of freshly sliced pear, dried figs, dates and raisin with sweet almond, honey and creamy shortbread notes.

Finish

A long finish of thickly spread orange marmalade, nutmeg notes underpinned by complex woodiness and a slight spice.

£45.00

Tax included.
