Tasting Notes
Imagine a distillery nestled amidst the rolling hills of Scotland, where the magic of whisky-making unfolds with every batch. The Teaninich 13 Year Old 2008 - Fairies (Fable Whisky) is a testament to this enchanting process. Upon uncorking the bottle, you're greeted by the alluring scent of dry wood, intertwined with the freshness of green apples and a subtle hint of caramel. A touch of hoppy bitterness adds an intriguing layer to the aroma. As you take your first sip, the vanilla notes dance gracefully on your palate, accompanied by the zesty flavors of oranges and lemons, replacing the apple notes from the nose. The finish is a delightful interplay of crunchy brown sugar and spicy peppercorn, leaving a lasting impression on your taste buds. This single malt, distilled in 2008 and bottled by Fable Whisky, was aged in a single refill hogshead, resulting in a limited edition of 299 bottles, each adorned with a captivating illustration by artist Hugo Cuellar, depicting a scene from the folklore tale 'The Ghost Piper of Clanyard Bay'.
