Glasgow 1770 The Original Cask Strength Batch 1, 61.3%
The Tasting Notes
On the nose, zesty Seville orange marmalade and dried apricot open up to toffee apple and dark fruit spice with notes of freshly planed oak.
The palate is rich and full bodied with fruity notes of poached pears, tropical fruit and toasted pineapple accompanied by biscuit malt and hints of marzipan, clove and anise.
The finish is long lasting with lingering notes of flamed orange peel, rich woody spice and a gentle touch of liquorice.
Details
Introducing The Original Cask Strength. Their flagship release has been double distilled with unpeated malted barley before maturing in first fill ex-bourbon casks and finishing in heavily charred virgin American white oak from Kelvin Cooperage.
They have handpicked three exemplary casks of The Original that they felt truly represented their flagship style, and married them together to create this Batch 01 release which is presented at 61.3% ABV and limited to 750 bottles.
At cask strength, the fruity heart that is the defining characteristic of their unpeated double distilled style is magnified - with prominent notes of zesty Seville orange marmalade, dried apricot, toffee apple, poached pear and toasted pineapple.
