Things have gone awry with the Highlands distillery Teaninich. It opened its doors in 1817, in Alness, Northern Scotland. The Teaninich single malt whisky distillery still stands on that spot, but that is actually a different one than the first. In short the history:
In 1970 the old distillery was expanded extensively with a new building with 6 stills next to the old one. In the next 10 years, the old building was renovated and equipped with new installations. In 1984 the old part was shut down, the new part a year later. But the new part became active again in 1991. The old part never woke up. It was demolished in 1999. Teaninich has no real distillery bottlings and produces almost exclusively for the blend industry (Johnnie Walker Red Label in particular). But until now, around 400 independent Teaninich bottlings have been released.
The bottlings in Diageo's Rare Malts Selection consistently scored well. This includes this bottling of a Teaninich single malt whisky that was released in 1997. The spirit for this whisky was distilled in 1973: a real 'old skool' Teaninich! (57.1% ABV)
Young and powerful, that's this Teaninich single malt whisky in two words. The House of MacDuff bottled this malt at cask strength (62.3%) after 9 years of aging. Apart from independent bottlings like this, you won't find Teaninich whisky in the store.
This Teaninich single malt whisky matured for more than 12 years, most of which in a bourbon cask, but the last year in a small cask that previously had Hungarian wine matured. Berry Bros & Rudd bottled 163 bottles of Teaninich at 55.5% from that cask.
