The Whisky Works 29 Year Old 1990 Glaswegian Single Grain Scotch Whisky (2019) 70cl

A bottle of The Glaswegian 29-year-old single grain whisky bottled by The Whisky Works, an independent bottling arm of Whyte & Mackay run by Master Blender Gregg Glass.

Bottled at cask strength without colouring or chill filtration, The Glaswegian 29-year-old hails from the city's Port Dundas distillery, once the largest of its kind in Scotland but sadly closed by owners Diageo in 2010 and subsequently demolished. A small batch of 1642 bottles at its natural cask strength of 54.2%.

Tasting Notes 

Nose: Strawberry cheesecake, tangy fruit salad and a little candy floss initially. Creme brûlée, milky coffee and a dollop of vanilla buttercream follow, then ginger snaps and supple woody tannins.

Palate: Through ancient oak furniture and damp malt come thick helpings of melted toffee, faintly sharp green apple and cooking chocolate. Black cherries and marmalade add a tart sweetness.

Finish: A final lick of caramel and a touch of minerality.

About The Whisky Works 

With decades of whisky-making at our core, we have put together a diverse collection of whiskies from all over Scotland, each with their own distinct recipe and character.

Our Classic Whiskies are rare vintage expressions, including single malts and grains from closed distilleries, while our Modern Experiments take a slightly different approach.

Each whisky is released in small batches of less than 2,500 individually numbered bottles, never to be repeated again.
