@markjedi1 has an excellent review over in the review section. This is pretty much how I found it with the 1983 version a little more robust and with an oily mouthfeel that was quite delicious. We haven't seen either of these for about 10 years (or so).

Thanks A'bunadhman. I am actually interested in G&M's Connoisseur's Choice 1968 (40 year old). I know this sounds ridiculous, but I want to buy a 40 year old scotch to add to my collection without breaking the bank. Silly, I know. I have seen various ratings on the Internet, including this site. It averages around 87 points or so. Not too shabby I guess.

@StevieC: If you want a 40yo. Whisky, G&M are probably your best bet - I've never seen anything from them that was less than very good, however they do present a lot of older Whiskies at 40% which , I think, detracts from their appeal. Having said that, I must concede that they are Masters of the Cask and of cask management. The 40yo. is 46%. Let us know what you do and how it tastes; pretty good I would think!
Good Luck.

Absolutely worth buying - especially their late 60's and also 70's bottlings are usually very good. I love the 1971/2005 Duncan Taylor, 1971/2007 Douglas Laing or the G&M late 60's are great.

If you want to get a reasonably priced 40yo try Strathisla G&M or Glenfarclas 40.

Has anyone tried or does anyone here own a bottle of Glen Keith? I know that the distillery is/was owned by Chivas (Pernod Ricard), and that it didn't last long and was used mainly for blends, as it was triple distilled. Other than that, is the whisky worth seeking out?
