Distillery profile:
The Glen Keith distillery was built in 1957-1960
on the site of a corn mill by Chivas Brothers, who
also owned the existing Strathisla distillery nearby.
It was one of the first new malt distilleries in
Scotland since the late-Victorian whisky boom. Glen
Keith (a.k.a. Glenkeith) originally had three stills
because the distillery was designed for triple distillation.
This 'Lowland' set-up was very unusual for a Speyside
distillery.... More
