1770 Glasgow Distillery Syrah Wine Cask 0.70 ltr 59.3%

This five year old release is the first release where the distillery has used a Greek Syrah red wine cask filled with the unpeated double distilled single malt Scotch whisky. Initially matured in first fill ex-bourbon casks, this release has been finished for one year and ten months in Greek Syrah red wine casks to bring out delicious notes of blackberry, raspberry, strawberry jam, black cherry, dark chocolate and pink peppercorn.
