It's a blend of whisky from 14 different Highland and Islay distilleries that is aged in Scotland in American oak ex-bourbon casks that impart the spirit with a gentle sweetness. Crafted to be a versatile spirit, Gladstone Axe American Oak is sweet, oaky, and smooth with hints of smoke. It's equally delicious as a sipper, on the rocks, or in various cocktails. The whisky is bottled at 82 proof.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nGet your bottle of this blended Scotch today!                            \u003cdiv class=\"caskers-brand-info\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"story-subtitle\"\u003eAbout The Gladstone Axe\u003c\/h2\u003e\n                                            William Ewart Gladstone was a prominent British politician, known for serving 12 years as Prime Minister of the UK. He is also famous for signing the Spirits Act of 1860 that allowed for single grain and single malt whiskies to be blended, paving the way for the modern Scotch whisky industry. Gladstone was an axe collector and enthusiast who enjoyed felling trees. \"The Grand Old Man,\" as he was known, served as the inspiration for The Gladstone Axe ― a brand that was launched by Biggar and Leith. Coincidentally, the founder and CEO of Biggar and Leith is the great-great-grandson of William Gladstone.                                        \u003cdiv class=\"brand-link\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.caskers.com\/spirits\/?brand_dropdown=4370\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eExplore all The Gladstone Axe bottles \u0026gt;\u0026gt;\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"caskers-spirit-type-info\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"story-subtitle\"\u003eAbout Scotch\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eScotch is the most popular whisky in the world and is considered the king of them all!
