Liam Hughes and Mike Hayward set themselves the goal of bringing the tradition of single malt whisky distillation back to Glasgow, and founded “The Glasgow Distillery Company Ltd”. This name pays tribute to one of Scotland’s first licensed distilleries, which was established as early as 1770. Operating under various names over the years, the original Glasgow Distillery Company produced a variety of whiskies – including unpeated, peated and triple-distilled single malts – until it closed in 1902.

With the founding of the new distillery, the realisation of its mission – to firmly re-establish the production of high-quality spirits in Glasgow – is now underway.

Glasgow 1770 The Original Single Malt symbolises the starting point of whisky production at the Glasgow Distillery. It combines the finest Concerto malted barley with pure water from Loch Katrine. Following a fermentation period of at least 72 hours and a particularly slow distillation process, this whisky is first matured in first-fill ex-bourbon casks and then refined in new American oak casks. Bottled at 46%, non-chill-filtered and in its natural colour, The Original reflects the craftsmanship and commitment to quality of the Glasgow Distillery.
