GLASGOW DISTILLERY COMPANY Single malt fl ows once again
Whisky makes you wait, sitting around in casks doing not much at all but maturing for the legally required ‘period of not less than three years’. The wait is over for the Glasgow Distillery Company, who’ve been shifting serious amounts of Makar gin for the last few years. Their 1770 Glasgow Single Malt Whisky, the i rst single malt to be produced in the city in over 100 years, is named after the founding year of the old Glasgow Distillery, which made whisky until 1902. With only 5000 bottles of 1770 swimming around, it’s not like you can just wander into an ofi e for one. Hopeful buyers had to enter a ballot prior to the spirit going on sale on 3 June. If you missed out this time . . . keep on waiting. (Jay Thundercliffe) ■ glasgowdistillery.com
