Teaninich was founded and built in 1817 by Hugh Munro on his estate of Teaninich Castle, Alness. Despite an initial difficulty of procuring barley whisky owing to a high demand from illegal distilleries, by 1830 Teaninich produced 30 times more spirit than it did at its founding. The distillery suspended production between 1939 and 1946 due to barley shortages during World War II.

Today Teaninich plays an important role for its owner, Diageo, in providing a signnificant volume of single malt whisky for use in its blending operations – Teaninich is one of its largest players.

A relatively long fermentation time is utilised at Teaninich, as well as large ball-type stills with slightly downwardly sloping lynne arms. The result? A particularly wonderful grassy and somewhat oily spirit that is fantastic for blending, and more magical yet as a single malt.

Maker Notes

Exclave Spirits was created to pay homage to the lost stories and contributions of Black people who have advanced distilled spirits. 

Black has been synonymous with cool for a long time, but now it’s time to write our story. Too often our stories are marginalized, if recognized at all. In recognizing this, Exclave exists to counter this tendency. Eschewing what has been previously written, opting instead for autonomy over our narratives. Ones that embrace pain and celebrate victory. Ones that fundamentally understand the role our history, both in this country and throughout the Diaspora, plays in our lives today. 

As we embark on this journey 3 principles are essential to Exclave: Authenticity, Freedom, and Self-Determination. 

With every product we release we explore the intersections of these concepts. Interrogating what they meant not only the vanguard of Black distillers who have laid the foundation we now stand upon, but for ourselves as we collectively determine a future that centers a Blackness that is vibrant, triumphant, and liberated. 

Exclave is a celebration of where we’ve come from and where we’re going.

STRAIGHT RYE WHISKEY FINISHED IN PORT WINE CASKS

Indiana Rye whiskey is brought to Texas where we batch it in our warehouse and finish it in old Port Wine Casks. The Texan sun influences the rate and strength of flavor imparted into the whiskey. Some casks take longer than others. The team tastes the whiskey finishing in the Port Wine Casks regularly until the optimal flavors are achieved. Casks are then batched together, tested regularly and proofed before bottling.

The Paul John range of single malt whiskies, produced by John Distilleries in Goa, India, marks a significant venture into the world of premium spirits for a company that has already made a notable impact in the Indian molasses 'whisky' market.

Brilliance, a member of this range, is crafted using Indian 6-row barley sourced from the Himalayan foothills. After careful distillation, the whisky is matured in bourbon barrels for a period of 3-5 years before it is bottled at its natural cask strength. Despite the tropical climate's influence on evaporation, resulting in approximately 12-13% loss per year, the whiskies from Paul John demonstrate exceptional quality even at a younger age, much like their counterparts from the renowned Amrut distillery

TASTING NOTES

Nose: The aroma reveals a delightful presence of juicy barley, accompanied by the inviting combination of Ryvita and salted butter. Cinnamon-dusted red berries add a touch of sweetness, while a hint of green apple skin follows closely behind.

Palate: Indulge in the delightful flavors reminiscent of Chomp Bars, where chewy caramel and chocolate take center stage. Along the way, lively spices emerge, creating a captivating journey for the taste buds. A subtle note of waxy orange peel adds an intriguing layer to the mid palate.

Finish: The finish leaves a lingering impression of orange, surprisingly long and satisfying. The rye notes, reminiscent of the initial nose, make a vibrant comeback in full force.

Overall: This John Distilleries creation is a remarkable Indian single malt. It showcases the distillery's dedication to quality and craftsmanship, delivering a truly enjoyable whiskey experience.
