The use of the technology, which removes the need for a mash tun, was to produce ultra-clear wort, giving a clue as to the Teaninich distillery character: a fragrant exotic grassiness that brings to mind Japanese green tea and coumarin-rich bison grass. Fat stills also add a distinct oiliness to the texture while not blunting any of its penetrating acidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 12-year-old is part of Diageo’s Flora \u0026amp; Fauna series and there are occasional releases from independent bottlers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt in 1817, Teaninich was an early legal distillery, but as it was built by Napoleonic war hero and estate owner ‘Blind’ Captain Hugh Munro that’s no more than you would expect. He and his brother General John Munro were notable as being benign and caring landlords in a region which was brutally hit by the Highland Clearances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnother local man, John Ross, took the lease in 1869 and ran the site until 1895 when it was transferred to Elgin-based blenders Munro \u0026amp; Cameron. It was the trustees of the late Innes Cameron who sold Teaninich to DCL in 1933.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt has undergone regular expansion – larger stills were installed in 1946, before the pair were doubled in 1962. In 1970 a new distillery, Teaninich ‘A Side’, with six stills was built. The two parts ran simultaneously until 1984, when the original site (‘B Side’) was silenced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe same thing is about to happen all over again. Teaninich’s capacity is due to double to 9m litres per annum and there are plans to build a separate 10m litres per annum distillery on the same site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout Signatory Vintage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerthshire-based independent bottler and owner of Edradour distillery. Signatory is an independent bottler with a vigorous release policy, and usually some 50 different single malt expressions are available at any one time. Whiskies are bottled across a number of ranges, including the Un-chill Filtered Collection, the Cask Strength Collection and the Single Grain Collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSignatory bottling, bonding and office facilities are located in a building adjacent to Edradour distillery, near Pitlochry in Perthshire, which the company also owns. Signatory Vintage Scotch Whisky was established in 1988 by Andrew Symington, who had previously managed the prestigious Prestonfield House Hotel in Edinburgh. The first cask bottled by Symington was a 1968 Sherry-cask-matured Glenlivet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSignatory was initially based in the Newhaven area of Edinburgh, where a bottling plant was developed, but in 2002 the firm acquired Edradour distillery from Pernod Ricard, and subsequently moved all of its operations north to the picturesque Perthshire location.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA new bottling plant and a warehousing complex were constructed, strictly in keeping with the vernacular architectural style which prevails at the much-visited and diminutive former farm distillery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e55.1% ABV\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e70cl\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Teaninich","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54524540518725,"sku":"000547","price":79.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/9495\/8661\/files\/4777906335_57a93b35-a7fb-47c8-a454-11c758834c74.jpg?v=1746553290","url":"https:\/\/b1yyjg-bk.myshopify.com\/products\/teaninich-17-year-old-2007-signatory-vintage-symingtons-choice-single-cask-3-1st-fill-pedro-ximenez-hogshead-finish-highland-single-malt-whisky-2024-70cl","provider":"Whisky Situation Old","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
