A Tasty Scotch Melting Cup.
Here’s another Scottish tipple with a legendary ancestor it honors. Our man, William Ewart Gladstone, was a long-term Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, the one who signed The Spirits Act of 1860 and allowed for the birth of Scotch Whisky as we love it.
The brand he inspires, thus part of Biggar & Leith, only uses the best blended-Whisky from the Scottish Highlands, with the intent to condense the distinctive traits of Scotch into two clear messages.
Here’s where the two Scotch styles The Gladstone Axe employs come into action. There’s the American Oak Whisky and The Black Axe.
The American Oak Whisky is carefully crafted from 100% malted barley, and various Single Malts from Islay and the Highlands matured in ex-Bourbon barrels. It hits the shelves at 41% ABV in a pretty spectacular bottle. It hits the taste buds with sweet mellowness and a lil’ kick. Make sure you try one, mate!
