In his 1930s book 'Whisky', Aeneas MacDonald teaches us that Glaswegians historically preferred fuller bodied and more flavour-packed whiskies than people in other parts of the world. So what better name for a whisky such as this? Glaswegians are also famed for their sense of humour, which is why the city's Wellington statue - traditionally dressed down with a traffic cone - is featured on the front label.

Excellent
I get the toasted marshmallows, sherry, and creamy soft smoke - a delicious dram reminiscent of a seaside sunset.
