Malt Riot Whisky
Customer Rating
“I was very impressed by this blended scotch. Would definitely order it again.”
Master of Malt Customer
Description
A blended malt from The Glasgow Distillery Co., inspired by the malt tax riots of 1725. The Government tried to impose taxes on Scotland's malted barley, which people protested against, particularly in Glasgow, where malt stores were barricades and excise men are chased away the city. This expression features a core of the distillery's 1770 whisky, and features other malt whiskies from across Scotland. Well suited to using in all sorts of classic whisky cocktails and mixed drinks, this one.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Freshly baked bread with marmalade, floral vanilla, a whisper of sawdust.
Palate
Fruitier on the palate, with some zesty citrus and mango, shortly joined by gingerbread and amaretti biscuits.
Finish
Lingering ginger spiciness.
