The Glasgow Distillery’s production started in 2015 in the south-west of the city. Their first single malt ‘Glasgow 1770 The Original’ launched in 2018 and in 2020 the distillery was named Distillery of the Year at the Scottish Whisky Awards.

Glasgow 1770 Single Malt Scotch Whisky, The Original, is the distillery’s inaugural release and is part of their Signature Range. The Original combines concerto malted barley with Scottish water from Loch Katrine to create a fresh and fruity single malt with notes of vanilla, fruits, honey and spice.

A minimum of 72 hours of fermentation and a slow distillation are followed by double maturation, initially in first fill ex-bourbon casks and then in virgin American oak barrels.

Taste: 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 brulee char on the pallet. 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.
