- Description
- Teaninich's Highland character comes alive in this rare cask expression, matured entirely in first-fill Bordeaux red wine cask for six years. Expect deep berry fruit and wine-soaked oak complexity balanced by the distillery's characteristic waxy, orchard-fruit character. Bottled without chill filtration or added colour in 2024, it captures the cask's influence in full. Best served neat to appreciate the interplay between wine influence and Highland spirit.
