Glasgow Distillery Co. marks return of single malt Scotch to city after 112 years

The production of single malt whisky has returned to Glasgow after an absence of more than 100 years, it was revealed yesterday (Tues). Craft spirits producer, The Glasgow Distillery Company, launched its first spirit, Makar Gin, last year and is now branching out into the whisky market. The company recently acquired its state-of-the-art distillation equipment, including a wash and spirit stills. Drinks industry veterans Liam Hughes and Ian McDougall decided to launch the company after realising there was growing interest in the UK for craft drinks and a market gap in Glasgow.
