This is a Single Malt worth noticing — triple distilled, virgin casks, perfect strength, and not artificial unpleasantness.
The original Glasgow Distillery Company operated from 1770 through about 1902, falling to the great Whisky recession that saw many a distillery shutter their doors. The current iteration was founded in 2012 by Liam Hughes, Ian McDougall, and Mike Hayward with production beginning in 2014. They have expanded to produce a wide range of Spirits from Single Malts to Gin and everything in between. And they recently received financing to expand production even further and bring their products to Asia and North America.
Normally, when you hear "triple distilled" it’s applied to an Irish Whiskey. Glasgow 1770 Triple Distilled Single Malt Release No. 1 is a full-fledged Scottish Lowland Single Malt that has passed thrice through the still. And we have to admit that we are impressed that it has been aged in virgin casks. Don’t get us wrong… there is NOTHING wrong with Bourbon and Sherry casks. But if you want to taste the pure influence of Spirit and wood, this is the way to do it. In addition, it’s bottled at what we think is the perfect strength — 46% ABV— which makes it a full-flavored sipper that will also stand up to ice. Even better, there is no chill filtration and it is delivered at its natural color.
