Orphan Barrel Castle’s Curse 14yr

Orphan Barrel Castle's Curse Aged 14 Years Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a distinct spirit that emanates from the esteemed Teaninich Distillery, founded in 1817. Situated in the Scottish Highlands, the distillery and the neighboring Teaninich Castle overlook the Cromarty Firth, a Special Protection area known for its diverse aquatic life. This whisky, matured for 14 years in select European oak casks, is bottled at an alcohol content of 94.8 proof. The maturation process imparts a unique balance of age and flavor; on the nose, you will detect inviting aromas of tangerine, poached pear, sweet confectionary, and dried herbs. Look for vanilla, red apple, and mint on the palate that leads to a long, oaky, and spicy finish. The label pays tribute to the legend of the Kelpie, a shape-shifting water spirit symbolic of Scotland's rich barley cultivation history.
