Glenisla is a peated experimental malt distilled at Glen Keith distillery.
Glen Keith
The old stone built meal mill of Keith was transformed into Glen Keith Distillery in 1957. Originally equipped with three pot stills it produced both double and triple distilled whisky up until 1970 at which time triple distillation ceased. During the 1970s one still was used to concentrate peat flavour in water, flavoured with peat smoke, which was imported from Stornoway. The resulting peated water was used in the production of Craigduff malt whisky and Glenisla malt whisky. Glen Keith was a Scottish Speyside distillery which produced malt whisky for blended scotch and the occasional official bottling of Glen Keith single malt whisky. Although production ceased at Glen Keith in 1999 its buildings remain intact.

The Distillery
Glenisla
During the 1970s, Glen Keith Distillery, a distinguished Speyside malt whisky producer, employed one of its stills to uniquely concentrate peat flavor by infusing water with peat smoke imported from Stornoway. This innovative peated water was integral to crafting limited editions of Craigduff malt whisky and Glenisla malt whisky, serving as an alternative to sourcing peated whisky from Islay for use in prestigious Chivas blends. The resulting small-batch whiskies, known for their rich smoky character, have become highly sought after by whisky enthusiasts and collectors. Signatory Vintage has meticulously bottled a few casks of these rare expressions, offering exclusive releases of Craigduff and Glenisla malt whiskies. This distinctive production method not only enhanced Glen Keith’s role in the blended Scotch market but also preserved the traditional peat influence, making these whiskies a prized addition to any connoisseur’s collection.
