Glaschu Teaninich 13: Saint-Émilion Red Wine Barrique – A Unique Highland Whisky with a Bordeaux Twist

The Glaschu Teaninich 13: Saint-Émilion Red Wine Barrique is a one-of-a-kind Highland single malt, aged for 13 years and finished in Saint-Émilion red wine barriques. This limited-edition release from Glaschu Spirits showcases the elegance of Teaninich Distillery’s crisp, fruit-forward spirit, beautifully enhanced by the rich, vinous influence of Bordeaux’s renowned Saint-Émilion wine casks.

The result is a whisky that delivers vibrant red fruit, velvety tannins, and gentle spice, perfectly complementing Teaninich’s naturally fresh and citrusy character. A must-try for those who appreciate wine cask-matured single malts.
