The Glasgow Distillery Co.
Tasting Notes
Malt Riot is a captivating blend that takes you on a journey through Scotland's rich whisky heritage. Inspired by the malt tax riots of 1725, this expression pays homage to the defiant spirit of those who fought against oppressive taxation. The nose greets you with the inviting aroma of freshly baked bread, hints of marmalade, and a delicate floral vanilla note that whispers of sawdust. On the palate, a burst of fruity flavors unfolds, with zesty citrus and tropical mango mingling harmoniously. Gingerbread and amaretti biscuits then join the party, adding a delightful warmth and depth. The finish lingers with the spicy caress of ginger, leaving a lasting impression on the senses. Crafted with a core of the distillery's 1770 whisky and complemented by other malt whiskies from across Scotland, Malt Riot is a versatile spirit that shines in classic whisky cocktails and mixed drinks, inviting you to embrace the rebellious spirit of Scotland's whisky history.
