Glen Keith Distillery was built in 1957, a relative newcomer to Speyside’s centuries-old Scotch whisky landscape. The stills at Glen Keith are narrow and tall, creating a spirit that is light and delicate. This excellent single malt commands respect, having been honoured with a traditional maturation in bourbon and Sherry casks.
Matured for over 25 years in ex-bourbon casks, our Whisky Creations Team filled this spirit into first-fill Oloroso Sherry casks for a further 16 months. This rare single malt gradually developed beautiful complexities that only decades ageing in oak casks can create – a triumph in the Art of Maturation.

Distillery Notes
The Murray McDavid brand was established in 1996 by legendary whisky players Mark Reynier, Simon Coughlin and Gordon Wright. Murray McDavid purchased the Bruichladdich distillery in 2000 where legendary master distiller Jim McEwan left Bowmore to join the Bruichladdich and Murray McDavid team.
In 2012 Remy Cointreau purchased the Bruichladdich Distillery selling the Murray McDavid brand in 2013 to Edward Odim of ACEO whom stated "Our intention is to continue the legacy of Murray McDavid by staying true to its founders' vision and principles such as bottling carefully selected single malts without chill-filtering or adding colour and continuing and developing the tradition of ACE-ing our whiskies".
Over 8000 barrels aging makes it one of the most extensive collections of independent whiskies and rums in the world. Its storehouse is located at Coleburn Distillery in Speyside, the heart of many of the world's great distilleries, including Macallan, Craigallachie and Glen Moray.
