About Glasgow 1770 Single Malt Scotch Whisky – Cognac Cask Finish - Batch 2 - Lightly Peated

This six year old release from The Glasgow Distillery demonstrates their wonderful spirit and wood management by combining three unpeated Cognac casks with two peated casks for a ‘lightly peated’ release. Initially matured within first fill ex-bourbon casks, this characteristically fruity release has been finished for an extended 3 years and 4 months within exceptional French Cognac casks to offer notes of sweet smoke, rich honey, poached pear, dried apple, and vanilla ice cream.

The Glasgow 1770 Cognac Cask Finish release is a six year old bottling, created by marrying five casks together, two of which held their Peated single malt, with three holding their Unpeated single malt. The whisky within these casks spent over three years within first fill ex-bourbon barrels before a long 3 years and 4 months finishing period within French Cognac casks.


Nose: Experience notes of red apples and poached pear with soft vanilla ice cream, a dash of runny honey, and a hint of floral sweet smoke. 


Palate: Creamy and smooth with notes of toffee apple, poached pear, leading to rich salted caramel and baked apple crumble.


Finish: Elegant and delicate; notes of honeydew melon, lemon zest and apple crumble accompanied by a light oak spice and a welcome wisp of sweet smoke.
