Built in 1817, Teaninich was one of the earliest legal distilleries in Scotland, and over the years it has become well known for its unique blend of
historic whisky distilling and cutting edge technology. It is one of only two Scottish distilleries that has dramatically increased its efficiency through the use of a mash filter press (more commonly used in beer making) rather than a Lauter or mash tun. The distillery currently produces over 10 million litres of spirit from its six existing stills but almost all of that is earmarked for blending in labels like Johnnie Walker. Its rather too bad that there is not more coming from Teaninich under its own label as its whisky has just as much character and flavour as its two nearby neighbours, Dalmore and Glenmorangie.
