Glasgow Distillery
Glasgow 1770 Red Wine & Ruby Port
In their latest Small Batch Series release, the glasgow distillery has combined two spirit styles that have each undergone two different maturation processes for the first time. The peated single malt and triple distilled single malt were both laid down in 2018 and matured separately. The peated single malt was matured in virgin American white oak and finished in Bordeaux red wine casks, while the triple distilled single malt was matured in first fill ex-bourbon casks and finished in ruby port. In late 2022, the six casks were married together and bottled at 57.5% without chill filtration and at natural colour. The first batch produced 1925 bottles, and the release is noted for being the company’s most experimental limited edition yet. Tasting notes include red berries and dark fruits on the nose, toasted almonds and tobacco on the palate, and a long spicy finish with hints of pink peppercorns.
