Pintail Teaninich 15 Year Old Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

A single cask bottling from Keith Bonnington (Keeper of the Quaich) bottled with out chill filtration at natural cask strength. Muscat de Rivesaltes is a fortified wine from Roussillon in Southern France that achieved AOC status 1956. Produced from both Muscat d'Alexandria and Muscat a Petit Grains grapes, the wines are aged in small oak barrels. The size of the cask in question has limited the out-turn of this release to 176 bottles. The wood has imparted a perfectly balanced sweet-yellow fruit character to the fresh and slightly botanical Teaninich distillate. 52.7% Alc./Vol.

Notes from the bottlers... NOSE: Peaches, nectarine, lemon zest, mint tea. PALATE: Mango, honey, dried apricots, yellow sultanas, white pepper and
an herbal freshness. FINISH: Cake spice, yellow stone fruits and a toasty, oaky resinous ending.
