Single Malt Whisky, Scotland/Speyside

This year’s Spring Edition of Equinox & Solstice is a single refill hogshead of 2011 Teaninich, bottled at 13 years of age and reduced to this series’ trademark easy drinking strength of 48.5%.

This cask already displayed a higher than usual show of Teaninich’s more highland, waxy side, but in addition to that, it also has a subtle but distinct layer of peat running throughout. Whether that is from the distillate or the previous cask, we don’t know, but the result is really tasty and very unusual – also a perfect balance of freshness and power for Spring!
