A 40-year-old Teaninich from independent bottler Speciality Drinks as part of the Single Malts of Scotland range. Distilled on 21 December 1973, it was aged (unusually) in a sherry puncheon, and bottled on 23 December 2013. Limited to just 98 bottles, this is rich yet elegant, and the oak is well balanced against dark chocolate orange – delicious.

Tasting Notes

Tasting Notes by Stuart P
-
Nose
Rye bread with salted butter, then aromatic notes of rose petals and red-berry fruits arrive, with a punchy sherbet aroma, too.
-
Palate
Given its age, you’d expect the oak to make its presence felt, but here it takes a back seat, with the cherry-rich fruit and some freshly cracked black pepper taking the lead. Some richness in the form of cherry cake adds complexity, too.
-
Finish
Lovely balance between the fruit, oak and spice.

Tasting Notes by Rocky
-
Nose
Rich and sweet nose with heather honey, dark chocolate and clove backed up by lime peel.
-
Palate
Creamy texture, with dark chocolate orange, a lemon freshness, a light oakiness and a spicy clove backbone.
-
Finish
Long, with the spiciness very persistent.
-
Comment
A rich, yet in many ways elegant 40 year old. For a whisky of this age, the oak isn't overpowering and all the flavours are very well integrated.
