Douglas Laing bottled this 18 Year Old Glen Keith way back in 2008. As is custom for the Old Malt Cask, it was bottled at the golden drinking strength of 50% ABV.

Nice, round and full nose with yellow and white fruit, sugared nuts, toasted oak and some wood shavings. Touch of icing sugar and a hint of blood oranges. Some coconut. Mild spices.

Silky soft, but spicy, with a dry bitterness from the wood that balances the sweet side perfectly. The citrus is a bit louder now. Midpalate, the sweetness creeps back to the front.

Wonderfully long though drying finish on lemon zeste.

Dangerously quaffable Glen Keith, that pushes all the right buttons.
