Strathclyde is now Glasgow’s most prosperous distillery. In 1936, Seager Evans moved made the move into the Scotch industry with the purchase of the brand Long John. Strathclyde distillery sits in the Gorbals located in the Lowlands, on the south side of the River Clyde opposite Glasgow Green park. Over the years, Strathclyde underwent numerous ownerships, before ending up within Allied Distillers.

Tasting Notes

The nose is rich and full. Golden rum notes begin the journey with this elegant single grain. Roasted peanuts with fresh brandy snaps and banoffee pie. Some aniseed notes with hints of treacle toffee, some fresh mint lifts the palate slightly, followed by banana yogurt to give the middle palate a nice big mouthfeel. The finish has some soft olive oil notes that will make way for some vanilla custard with some rather nice raspberry sorbet.
