Teaninich 7 Year Old tasting notes

Tasting notes by James Angus

In the glass: None leaking out. Positive. Slow trickle down the sides.

Smell: Punchy nose. Higher ABV. Sherried, cherries, bits of fruit and toffee, pain au raisin vibe.

Taste: Sherried kick, bit of cinnamon and ginger. Stone fruit. Bit of cake. Not polished. Still got those slightly rough edges to it and the ABV shows.

Finish: Well think sherried whisky.

Overall: Its not going to give it all up in the first mouthful and it's going to change the longer it's been open so yeah. A thinking drinkers dram.

Ed's review

Appearance: Burnished gold. The heavy spirit clings to the sides of the glass.

Nose: Toffee, malt, grass. Redcurrants and fresh gingerbread. Woody spices and oak.

Palate: Medium to full mouthfeel. Creamy toffee. Red apples, red berries. A strong backbone of quality Highland malt. Wood spice and oak. Alcohol is well integrated.

Finish: Medium finish with dark toffee, gingerbread and warming spice.

About this North Star x Whisky Punks collaboration

An intro from James

OK so we've done this again.

This time round we have the cask naming rights so no long afternoon conversations with the SWA legal team in the offing.

It's TEANINICH.

Yes the distillery that looks a bit like the Schweppes industrial unit just outside Rugby and has all the whisky romance of a quick shag in an unused conference room.

It is however a shiny example near bullet proof consistency of the production of whisky and a favourite of indie bottlers. I cannot think of how many different bottles of Teaninich I've had over time but none of them were rubbish.

So when the besties at North Star said they had some spare I perked up and started thinking WP2 and got to taste a rather punchy 6yo sherry cask.

The same levels of stringent quality testing amongst several drinkers with no professional qualifications or credentials were implemented and it was decided that it was decent.

Mike Woodward-Gregg declared this as thinking drinkers dram so not only are we using this as the tag line but we are also throwing Mike straight under the bus/HGV/car and blaming him if no one likes it.
