Already in 1770 there was a distillery at the current location of the Glasgow distillery, called Dundashill, which was then one of the first licensed whisky distilleries. In 2014, Liam Hughes, Mike Hayward and Ian McDougall decided to revive this piece of history and founded the Glasgow Destillery. It is now one of the few urban distilleries in Scotland dedicated to whisky production. With their now four pot stills, they currently produce around 440,000 liters of alcohol a year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
With the 1770 Peated, the Glasgow Distillery delivers a very untypically smoky whisky for the Lowlands. They use peated malt with 50 parts per million phenol for their smoky whisky. Excitingly, the whisky was first matured in Virgin Oak casks before being finished in PX Sherry casks. Unfortunately, there is no further information about the respective maturation periods. Nevertheless, the whisky is very balanced despite its tendency to be very young. The nose combines fresh wood, some smoke and a slight spiciness with BBQ in the taste. On the whole, one can also detect notes of orange peel and liquorice. One can be curious about further bottlings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":93182,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[2378,2506,2204,2276,2170],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-22207","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-glasgowdistillery-en","product_cat-lowlands-en","product_cat-scotland-en","product_cat-single-malt-en","product_cat-whisky-en","pa_bottling_date-keine-angabe-en-2","pa_cask_type-keine-angabe-en-2","pa_country-schottland-en-2","pa_destillation_age-keine-angabe-en-2","pa_destillation_date-keine-angabe-en-2","pa_region-lowlands-en","pa_whisky_bottler-destillen-original-abfuellung-en","pa_whisky_bottler_series-keine-angabe-en-2","first","instock","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"yoast_head":"\n
