Banditti Club Rum

Despite the initial hit on the nose this is a pretty solid spiced rum and though I didn’t try it I can imagine this mixes well also. Plenty of festive spices to be found. 80/100

Glasgow 1770 Golden Beer Cask Finish

Really loving this one, there is still hints of sherry influence but also plenty of beer notes too coming through. This has added some depth and variety to Glasgow’s fruity spirit nature. 88/100

Glasgow 1770 The Original

As described Fresh and Fruity, lovely distillate notes shine through with just a hint of perhaps too much virgin oak (pencil shavings) but otherwise a very enjoyable dram. 82/100

There are some who rave about any whisky matured in Port casks as being excellent, however in my experience some have been either a hit or a miss. Don't let the colour fool you as the palate doesn't always back it up. Here however Glasgow have matured this one to perfection. Lots of juicy red fruits, touch jammy and some chocolate. 89/100
