Product information
Our Artist & Glasgow Blend whiskies are dedicated to applying a contemporary approach to the creation of Blended Scotch Whiskies in the full-flavored style of the late 19th century blending houses, with both demanding bartenders and malt whisky enthusiasts in mind. These whiskies are produced with a higher malt-content than is commonly used these days. GLASGOW BLEND is an old school peaty Blended Scotch, boasting malt whisky matured in Sherry butts, and an Islay single malt of a powerfully peaty nature. Full, rich and smoky on the palate, with notes of baking spices and sherry wine notes. Bottled at 43% abv, non-chill filtered and natural color.

Tasting notes
Full, rich and smoky on the palate, with notes of sticky toffee pudding, Sherry wine character and impressions of a coal fire, Glasgow Blend shines in combination with rich cheeses and cured meats.
