A substantial and characterful Teaninich cask, aged over 12 years in a Refill Sherry Butt
Refill butts are prized for offering both excellent volume and beautifully balanced maturation, allowing the whisky to develop layers of dried fruit, soft spice, honeyed sweetness and rounded oak while retaining Teaninich’s naturally crisp Highland character.

At an impressive 61.96% current cask strength and with a large outturn, this cask presents an exceptional opportunity for premium bottling projects. The long maturation in a butt has encouraged depth and maturity without overshadowing the spirit’s fresh, structured profile — resulting in a whisky that is both expressive and refined.

This cask has been selected from a private parcel held back for its quality and bottling potential.

About Teaninich Distillery

Established in 1817 in the Highlands, Teaninich is a distinctive distillery thanks to its unusual filtering system, which creates a bright, crisp spirit with subtle waxy notes.
Though not often seen as an official single malt, Teaninich has earned a loyal following among independent bottlers and connoisseurs who appreciate its complexity and character.

Typical Teaninich traits include:

  • Fresh-cut grass & herbal notes

  • Crisp apple and citrus

  • Light waxy texture

  • Clean, structured spirit character

Refill sherry maturation enhances this style with gentle dried fruits, mellow spice and soft, rounded sweetness, without overpowering the spirit’s natural freshness.
