The Teaninich 1972 Rare Malts Selection is a remarkable 23-year-old single malt whisky, distilled at the Teaninich Distillery in the Highlands and bottled by Diageo for their renowned Rare Malts Selection. Distilled in 1972 and bottled in 1996, this whisky boasts an impressive cask strength of 64.95% ABV (129.9 proof), making it one of the standout expressions in the Rare Malts series. Teaninich, although one of Diageo's lesser-known workhorse distilleries, rose to prominence in the early 1990s when several extraordinary early 1970s vintages were featured in the Rare Malts series. Since 2000, official releases from Teaninich have been limited, including the Flora & Fauna 10-year-old, one Managers' Choice, and one Special Release bottling—a highly-rated but expensive 17-year-old from the 1999 vintage. The Rare Malts Selection was a limited edition series of single malt whiskies from both operational and lost distilleries, released by Diageo between 1995 and 2005. The Teaninich 1972 Rare Malts Selection stands out for its exceptional quality and rarity. It is presented in a beautiful presentation box, making it a prized addition to any whisky collection. This whisky offers a diverse and intriguing nose, with notes of varnish, acetone, salt, iodine, and jerky. On the palate, it delivers an unprecedented intensity, featuring flavors of cherry in chocolate, whipped cream, wood, pipe tobacco, meadow flowers, and acetone. The finish is super long with an anesthesia effect, leaving a hearty malt impression. A drop of water reveals more fragrance and makes it easier to appreciate.
