Teaninich 2016 / 10 Year Old / Signatory Highland Whisky – Rich Highland Character at a Rewarding Price

Discover a bold and beautifully layered take on Highland whisky with Teaninich 2016 / 10 Year Old / Signatory Highland Whisky. Matured for 10 years and bottled by Signatory Vintage, this 70cl expression offers impressive flavour and character without the premium price often attached to older or more widely known single malts.

Teaninich is traditionally associated with a light, grassy and fresh style. This special release adds a richer, deeper dimension through a finishing period in ex-Pedro Ximénez sherry casks. The result is a whisky with a pleasing balance between its naturally bright Highland character and the darker, sweeter notes brought by the sherry wood.

A Flavour-Filled Highland Whisky with Excellent Value

Bottled at 46% ABV and released as part of Signatory Vintage’s Un-Chillfiltered collection, this whisky delivers a full and satisfying tasting experience. The higher strength helps preserve its natural body and flavour, while the un-chillfiltered approach allows more of the whisky’s original character to remain in the bottle.

On the nose, expect a welcoming combination of dried fruit, gentle spice and rich sweetness. Notes of dates and figs create a deep, fruity opening, while hints of baking spices add warmth and complexity. There is also a subtle sense of malt and fresh Highland air, keeping the whisky balanced rather than overly heavy.

The palate brings the sherry influence further forward. Dark chocolate, ripe dried fruit and warming spice combine in a smooth, satisfying pour. The whisky has enough richness to feel indulgent, yet it retains the lighter, lively character that makes Teaninich distinctive. Each sip offers a little more to discover, making it an enjoyable choice for relaxed evening tasting.

The finish is pleasantly warming, with lingering fruit, cocoa and spice. It is substantial without becoming overpowering, leaving a rounded impression that encourages another sip. For a 10-year-old whisky, the depth and balance are particularly appealing, giving drinkers a lot to enjoy at an accessible price.
