This bottling of a 21-year-old Glen Keith single malt from The Distillery Sites series by Jack Wieber's Jumping Jack Productions was distilled in 1992 and bottled in 194 individually numbered bottles.
Glen Keith is a distillery in Keith, Moray, Scotland, built from 1957-1960 by Chivas Brothers, who already operated the Strathisla distillery opposite. Various experiments and innovative techniques were tried, such as triple distilling similar to a Lowland whisky. The distillery also produced its own malt and yeast. In the meantime, a peated malt whisky was produced and marketed under the trade name Glenisla. In 1999 the distillery was closed down, but since 2013 it has been in production again.
The Speyside lies in the north-east of the Highlands and is considered the centre of Scotland's whisky production. Around the towns of Elgin, Rothes, Keith and Dufftown there are more distilleries than anywhere else in Scotland, including big names such as Glenfarclas, Glenlivet, Macallan and many more.
Elegance and complexity are often cited as characteristic features of Speyside malts, but the variety of whiskies produced here is too great to speak of a single style.
Scotland and Scotch whisky is a global trend, a development that has led to a flourishing whisky scene in Scotland. There is hardly a week that goes by in which there is no news about another new distillery being built or the reopening of a distillery that has been closed for a long time.
Scotland, together with Ireland, is today considered the motherland of whisky, whose roots there go back to around 1500 AD.
