distilleries is that we make three very distinct styles of single malt whisky
at The Glasgow Distillery. Unpeated, peated and triple distilled spirit is a
key feature of our annual production calendar and is characterised within our
Glasgow 1770 Signature Range."

releases, we’re showcasing the incredible flexibility and versatility of our
single malt by combining the different spirit styles with a range of
interesting casks that we have been experimenting with at the distillery over
the past couple of years.”
