Glasgow 1770 - Cognac Cask Finish (Peated)
An exquisite limited edition single malt from the Glasgow Distillery, distilled in 2018 and bottled in 2022. After an initial maturation in American white oak barrels, the whisky was transferred to ex-Cognac barriques in late 2020, where it rested until bottling. The classic peaty core combined with the rich oak and vinous fruit influence of the cask makes this a supremely satisfying sipper. A release of 882 bottles.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Barbecued fruits, leathery oak, and autumn berries, with smoked tea leading to notes of woody spice.
Palate
Crystalised ginger and hearty peat smoke welcome the way for generous helpings of earthen clove and cinnamon. Fragrant malt brings notes of prunes, chocolate, and a touch of fruity zest.
Finish
Lingering whispers of peat smoke and bittersweet cocoa, roasted coffee beans, dates, and caramel biscuits.
