An homage to the historical tastes of Glaswegian whisky drinkers, this is led by rich, smoky and spicy notes, with a mouthcoating Sherry wine sweetness.
Glasgow Blend is made with a very high proportion of Highland and Islay single malts (about 65%), combined with Lowland grain. It is matured in a combination of Sherry-seasoned butts, American Oak barrels and hogsheads, and custom French Oak casks.
Full, bold and smoky on the palate, Glasgow Blend unites the rich spice and fruitcake-like notes of Sherry cask ageing with the maritime punch of Islay malt whisky.

Aromas of sherry and smoke permeate the streets of Glasgow.

Old-school peaty blended Scotch whisky

In his 1930s book ‘Whisky’, Aeneas MacDonald teaches us that Glaswegians historically preferred fuller bodied and more flavour-packed whiskies than people in other parts of the world. So what better name for a whisky such as this?

Glaswegians are also famed for their sense of humour, which is why the city’s Wellington statue – traditionally dressed down with a traffic cone – is featured on the front label.

Drawing on historical references that Glaswegians have long preferred bigger, smokier whiskies,
the high malt content (approx. 65%) is inspired
by 100-year-old recipes.
