Obscure cocktail variant which is implied to be found in only one Glasgow hotel. No reliable sources. Only link is to a recipe for the well known Cuba Libre. Cocktail apparently invented by a non-notable individual whose own article has just been deleted for a second time; both articles created by the same user.

  • Delete. This is a relatively new drink for which there is no evidence of notability. It barely gets any mention, much less in significant sources. --Larry (talk) 20:00, 5 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom. No redeeming value, no coverage, should be no article. The drink is not mentioned by the Crowne Plaza Hotel, the City of Glasgow, or the Glasgow Chamber of Commerce. It is also doubtful that a Glasgow "iconic cocktail" would be made with rum, Drambuie maybe. And then there is the Rob Roy, but who would do that to good scotch? Auld Nick and the Flying Scotsman are other possibilities. The sentence in the Govan article about this alleged Scottish cocktail also needs to be stricken. --Bejnar (talk) 20:21, 5 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I agree with the analyses above. The article was apparently created at the same time the cocktail was invented. It was not notable then and there is no evidence that it has become notable. I am One of Many (talk) 07:21, 12 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
