Founded in 1817, the Teaninich Distillery has established itself as a leader in whisky distilling and cutting-edge technology. The Distillery and neighboring Teaninich Castle are located in the Highlands of Scotland, overlooking the shores of the Cromarty Firth. This area, known for its aquatic wildlife, is also designated as a special protection area for wildlife conservation purposes. The 14-year-old Single Malt Scotch from selected casks was matured in European oak. This unique balance of age and flavor boasts a nose with pleasurable aromas of tangerine, poached pear, sweet confectionary, and dried herbs, while its poetic texture alludes to vanilla, red apple, and mint. The label pays homage to the legend of the Kelpie and centers on a supernatural, shape-shifting aquatic spirit or ‘Water Horse’ that symbolizes both summoning of water and Scotland’s rich history of cultivating barley.
