With its globally acclaimed flavor profile, the Glasgow 1770 Peated quickly became the flagship whisky of the independent, urban Glasgow Distillery. The malt for this Lowland gem is kilned over Highland peat at 50 ppm.
A combination of three hogsheads.
With the limited-edition Glasgow 1770 Peated Cask Strength release, the distillery takes it a step further. Bottled at 60.7% ABV, this single malt delivers delicious notes ranging from BBQ sauce and smoked ham to preserved plum, tobacco, and dark chocolate.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Robust, smoky BBQ sauce, tobacco leaves, and richly smoked Iberico ham open up to ripe, juicy blackberries and sticky poached plums.
Palate: Sweet BBQ smoke with grilled pineapple and banana leads to slow-roasted coffee beans, dried apricots, and flambéed orange peel.
Finish: Long and full-bodied, with lingering notes of sweet tobacco, dark chocolate, and juicy raisins and sultanas, complemented by hints of toasted oak.
