- Description
- Teaninich's 12 Year Old was released in 1991 to mark the distillery's reopening after a six-year closure, becoming a rare official bottling from a distillery now better known as a component of Johnnie Walker. The spirit carries Highland character—malty, slightly spiced, with orchard fruit and soft wood influence from its decade in cask. Medium-bodied and approachable, it finishes with lingering spice and dry oak. A historical bottling that captures a moment of revival in Scottish whisky.
