Claymore has genuine history. This fine whisky was first produced in 1890 by A Ferguson & Co of Glasgow. It was made famous before the Great War through classic advertising; Claymore was used to toast the King. By then, it was being exported all over the world by Greenlees Brothers. The word Claymore is from the Gaelic ‘claidheamhmor’, meaning great sword. Taste: Full-bodied, malt, smoke, notes of caramel, chocolate, hints of fruit, coffee.
