About this deal

Aromas of peaches, ripe pears, runny honey and vanilla toffee fill the nose, complemented by notes of orchard fruits, marzipan and lemon zest throughout the palate. Released as part of Chivas` Secret Speyside Collection, this 25 year old single malt Scotch from the Glen Keith distillery was aged in first fill American oak barrels. It was mothballed in 1999, and then reopened in 2013 primarily to produce whisky for blends once again. There’s that red apple again, then a hint of black banana, wood polish and richer, dark fruits – blackcurrants, damsons and super-ripe plums.

Despite this there are still many good drams to be had, lets not forget that despite the changes Glen Keith was, at its heart, a consistent and top quality malt whisky. This was the start of a fascinating era at Glen Keith where the distillery would be used as a laboratory of sorts for Chivas to experiment with production techniques on a small scale. Furthermore, we may (without prior notice and without giving reasons) change, delete or alter any Contributions, whether in whole or in part, that in our sole judgment and discretion violates these Terms, is unlawful, is in any way harmful to you, Members, us, the Service or any third parties.This one was drawn from specially selected barrels and butts and bottled at 43% ABV, boasting oodles of orchard fruit notes alongside nutty malt and soft, herby elements.

However, the Glen Keith single malt is released through independent bottlings and sparing official releases.Triple distilling was now practiced alongside standard double distilling and the stills were all gas-fired, the first distillery to do so in Scotland. Wonderful texture, with an explosion of tropical fruit darkening into cassis and black cherry, which in turn tips over into a slight, but pleasing, bitterness. Only late on do darker notes of blackberry and even blueberry emerge, along with bitter black chocolate.
