Teaninich was an early legal distillery built in 1817, and was built in the Ross-shire town of Alness by Napoleonic war hero and estate owner ‘Blind’ Captain Hugh Munro. This 10 year old expression is one of few single malt bottlings from the distillery - with most of the distillery production going into blended whisky - and is part of Diageo's Flora and Fauna range.
