The Original Cask Strength is a marriage of three barrels, handpicked for their defining fruity characteristic that lies at the heart of Glasgow Distillery’s unpeated double distilled spirit style.The whisky is said to deliver notes including Seville orange marmalade, dried apricot, toffee apple, poached pear, toasted pineapple, rich dark fruits and vanilla.
The Peated Cask Strength combines three hogsheads that
showcase its signature BBQ-forward smoky style. The whisky is said to deliver notes
including tobacco leaf, smoked Iberico ham, sticky poached plums, dried apricot
and flamed orange zest.
Commenting on the launch, Mike Hayward, Co-Founder of The
Glasgow Distillery, said: “Following the sell-out success of Glasgow 1770 Cask
Strength Batch 01, we wanted to offer our community another opportunity to
experience our whisky as it comes, straight from the cask - bold, pure, and
full of character. At The Glasgow Distillery, we’re passionate about every
stage of the production process, from our hands on distilling process to
selecting the best possible casks to use for maturation. By sharing these
whiskies in their purest form, we’re able to offer our community a more direct
connection to our craft and to the unique, evolving character of Glasgow 1770
single malt.”
Glasgow 1770 The Original Cask Strength Batch 02 (limited to
750 bottles) and Glasgow 1770 Peated Cask Strength Batch 02 (limited to 1000
bottles) are now available directly from the distillery and select specialist
retailers, for the respective RRP’s of £64.00 and £66.00.
