Description
Built in 1957, Glen Keith Distillery produces a fruit-forward lighter style of Speyside whisky. This beauty is no exception. 29 years spent patiently maturing in the same ex-bourbon barrel have produced a light and fruity dram that lets the distillery’s signature style be the hero in perfect harmony with a forgiving oak cask. Show vanilla sponge cake, honey and crisp orchard fruits in the nose with Warming toasted oak, white chocolate, tropical fruits and cracked black pepper on the palate. The freshness of cut grass, pineapple and grapefruit balanced with notes of good age build a nice finish.

Highland-Speyside
Speyside: Das Herz der Whisky-Kultur
Geografisch gesehen ist die Speyside ein kleiner, nordöstlich gelegener Teilbereich der Highlands. Doch das Hügelland zwischen den Städten Inverness und Aberdeen, durch welches das Flüsschen Spy fliesst, das der Region ihren Namen gibt, ist das Herz und der Nabel der schottischen Whisky-Herstellung und Single Malt-Kultur. Nicht weniger als 50 der insgesamt 108 schottischen Destillerien sind hier beheimatet. Die Speyside-Malts bestechen mit ihrer Komplexität und Eleganz.
Scotland
Scotland – Wild history, warming whisky
Whiskey, bagpipes, kilts – These are the most famous elements of Scottish culture. It has not been conclusively determined who invented whisky. The Scots and Irish both argue that they invented the “water of life.” Food and drink definitely tops the Scottish export categories. Every second, around 40 bottles of whisky are purchased. So it’s hardly surprising that whisky makes up around 80 percent of total food and drink exports.
