Glasgow 1770 Cask Strength Peated
A limited edition release of our smoky single malt, Glasgow 1770 Peated, presented at a natural cask strength. For Batch 02, we’ve selected three exemplary casks that showcase our Peated style in all its glory – rich, smoky, BBQ-forward. The whisky within these three casks has initially been matured in virgin American white oak barrels before a finishing period within Spanish Pedro Ximénez sherry hogsheads.
These three casks resulted in only 1000 bottles at a natural strength of 60.7% ABV.
Our Cask Strength Releases
Every 12 – 18 months we present two of our flagship single malts at a natural cask strength: The Original and Peated. These bottlings are the true taste of the whisky we make here at The Glasgow Distillery; bold, unadulterated, and 100% natural.
Production Summary
Introducing Glasgow 1770 Peated Cask Strength, our popular peated single malt at a natural strength of 60.7% ABV.
Distilled with malted barley that has been peated to 50ppm with mainland peat from Aberdeenshire, Cask Strength Peated has been matured in virgin American white oak barrels and finished in Pedro Ximénez sherry hogsheads.
Batch 01 of this release was awarded a Gold Medal at the 2024 Scotch Whisky Masters.
For this new Batch 02 release, our whisky making team have handpicked three hogsheads that they felt truly demonstrate the rich and smoky character that our peated style is known for, numbers 18/1185, 18/1187, and 18/1189. These were initially filled in 2018 and married together for bottling in late 2024 with a limited outturn of 1000 bottles.
Notes of rich BBQ sauce, tobacco leaf and opulent smoked Iberico ham marry with sticky poached plums, dried apricot and flamed orange zest for a truly stunning showcase of the Peated whisky we’re making each year.
