How the malt riots led to the birth of whisky- Scran Podcast
- 4 years ago
This week Scran takes a look back at Glasgow's malt riots and how they kick-started the whisky industry we know and love today.
Joining Rosalind are Emily Coyle, brand development manager at the Glasgow Distillery company, and Norry Wilson, founder of Lost Glasgow, a Facebook page with a global following that shares tales of Glasgow’s colourful and diverse history.
Emily tells us about The Glasgow Distillery’s latest whisky release, Malt Riot Blended Scotch Malt Whisky, inspired by the 1725 Malt Tax Riots which started in Glasgow and spread across the country. Norry discusses Glasgow's rebellious past and recent history, and why you should fear the women over the men.
Finally Rosalind creates two Glasgow Distillery cocktails at home using Malt Riot - Malt Riot Glasgow Whisky Sour and the Ginger Riot.
