Teaninich 2009/2023 Signatory Vintage 13 years old Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 46%

From the north of Scotland to the Italian vineyards and back - this Teaninich has picked up an unexpected wine-inspired dimension from casks that once held one of Tuscany's most sought-after red wines.

Expert description

Teaninich 2009/2023 from Signatory is a 13 year old Single Highland Malt Scotch Whisky at 46%, bottled under Signatory's The Un-chillfiltered Collection range.

The whisky matured in four first-fill hogsheads (cask no. #9, #13, #14 and #15) that previously held Bolgheri - a celebrated Italian red wine from the Tuscan coast. This unusual cask history gives the whisky a subtle, wine-touched dimension layered over Teaninich's classic light style.

Distilled in September 2009 and bottled in March 2023 after 13 years of maturation, the whisky is non-chill filtered and naturally coloured. 701 bottles were released of this edition.

Finish

Medium length with a lingering, lightly tart berry note that fades into dry oak.
