Glen Keith Single Highland Malt Whisky (1 Litre) 10 Year Old · 1983 Vintage
Out of stock
A Glen Keith 1983 10 Year Old is an official distillery single malt from the Speyside producer, distilled in 1983 and bottled at 43% ABV after a decade in oak casks. The distillery, opened in the late 1950s by Chivas Brothers, released this bottling in the 1990s before it was mothballed in 1999; official single malts from this period are now rare.
The whisky typically shows the lighter, floral and fruit-led character Glen Keith is known for, with gentle orchard fruit and subtle spice underpinned by soft oak. A touch of citrus and malt sweetness often accompanies the core flavours, reflecting the distillery’s Speyside style that was mainly used in blends but on occasion bottled in its own right.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Pale straw gold with a soft, sunlit amber glow.
Nose
Delicate bouquet of orchard fruits, apple and pear, with soft florals and a citrus lift. Subtle spice and gentle oak underpin a touch of malt sweetness, for a fresh, airy Speyside aroma.
Palate
Light, floral and fruit-led on the palate, with orchard apple and pear notes carried by a whisper of citrus. Subtle spice threads through soft, well-integrated oak and a gentle malt sweetness, giving a poised mid-palate and a clean, refined finish that lingers with quiet warmth.
Finish
A delicate, lingering finish of orchard fruit and floral sweetness fading into citrus zest and a whisper of spice. Soft oak and malt sugars glisten, leaving a clean, silky warmth that slowly fades with elegant restraint.
