150th Anniversary Whisky Tasting

We are pleased to announce that on Friday 17th January we will be hosting a tasting session for our 150th Anniversary Whisky with the Master Blender, Max McFarlane.

Taking place at 6.30pm within Cappielow Park supported by Dalrada Technology, this event is free to attend but limited to just 50 spaces!

Come along and try out our commemorative whisky whilst also having the chance to speak to Max McFarlane the Master Blender as well as being able to purchase your own bottle!

Max joined Lang Brothers in 1974 and has worked with iconic whisky names including Famous Grouse, Bunnahabhain, Glengoyne, Tamdhu, and Glenrothes. He was instrumental in the rise of Highland Park, and his name appeared prominently on their labelling. His exceptional contribution to Scotch Whisky was recognised in 2017 when he was inducted as a Keeper of the Quaich.

With 50 years in the trade, Max rose to become the lead whisky maker at Edrington, and his signature can be found on the labels of some of their finest whiskies.

An Inverkip local, Max joined Ardgowan Distillery to help create their flagship series of lowland single malts. In this collaboration with Ardgowan Distillery, Max has created a Blended Malt Scotch Whisky that reflects the dedication and excellence synonymous with Greenock Morton FC. The “150th Anniversary Blended Malt” combines a unique selection of malts, resulting in a whisky as distinctive as the club’s legacy.

Tasting notes include:

Nose: A delicate, floral, and lightly tannic aroma featuring stem ginger, toffee apples, Early Grey tea, and new leather.
Palate: Dry and textured with hints of olive oil, malted wheat cereal, and creamy porridge drizzled with caramelised brown sugar.
Finish: Subtle notes of dry tobacco for a balanced and memorable conclusion.
