Teerenpeli 15 Year Old Finnish Single Malt Whisky

Gianluca Ferro — Finland's best kept secret

9/10

I grabbed this on a whim and it absolutely floored me. Rich honey and toasted oak on the nose, with a creamy vanilla and dark fruit thing going on that reminds me of good Speyside malts. At cask strength it opens up beautifully with a few drops of water. Genuinely one of the most interesting bottles I've bought this year.

Clara Johansson — Solid pour, steep price

8/10

Really well-made whisky with a lovely balance of dried fruit, spice and gentle smoke. The 15 years in Finnish conditions clearly does something interesting to the maturation. At £90 it's not cheap for a relatively unknown distillery, but the quality is there if you're willing to take the punt.
