Here we have 1770 Original Glasgow single malt, distilled at none other than the Glasgow distillery, which brought whisky production back to the city for the first time in over 100 years! It's handcrafted in copper pot stills (named Tara and Mhairi), combining Scottish barley with the pure water of Loch Katrine. The limited edition whisky was then matured in first fill bourbon casks, and treated to a finish in virgin white oak.
Dried dark fruits with tropical undertones on the nose, followed by hints of biscuit, oak and freshly cut grass.
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.
A long finish of thickly spread orange marmalade, nutmeg notes underpinned by complex woodiness and a slight spice.

Surprisingly exceptionally good considering the age of this dram (not that they had an age on the bottle) - first tasted this on a distillery virtual tasting and soon picked up a bottle after
Unexpectedly complex given its presumably young age, very enjoyable and recommended
Can’t be too old, nevertheless honestly surprised by the quality and fullness of this dram coming from a distillery that only just put Glasgow back on the whisky map in 2014. Showing plenty of potential for the future as well …
Absolute cracker of a drop. Oily, fruity, perfectly balanced with a woody spice that only comes from top notch casks. Fans of older whisky in heavily used casks will find this a little lively for them, but anyone with a pulse will fall in love.
quite rough, but that is to be expected of a 3 year old. maybe better wood and a longer time in cask this will be something worth getting.
