Tasting Notes
This single malt whisky by Glasgow 1770 is a true delight for peat lovers and fruit enthusiasts alike. The initial aroma tantalizingly combines sweet peat smoke with jammy stone fruits, prunes, and a hint of drying spice and fresh tobacco. On the palate, rich dark fruit flavors mingle with candied ginger, marmalade, smoked honey, and grilled tropical fruits, creating a delightfully complex and indulgent experience. The finish lingers with notes of chocolate coffee beans, dried berries, cinnamon biscuits, and a subtle touch of bonfire smoke. This exceptional whisky has undergone a meticulous maturation process, first resting in fresh American white oak casks for six years, followed by a finishing period of nearly two years in a Madeira wine cask, imparting luscious notes of stone fruits, ginger cake, and tobacco to the smoky barley at its core.
