Orphan Barrel Whiskey Co. added a second single malt scotch to its limited-edition library of rare whiskies<\/a><\/strong>. Castle\u2019s Curse is a 14-year-old is from Teaninich Distillery, a two-century-old distillery in the Northern Highlands of Scotland. Diageo now owns it, making it a prime site to find the forgotten casks that give life to the Orphan Barrel series. <\/p>\n

Castle\u2019s Curse gets its name and label art from the legend of the Scottish Kelpie, a \u201csupernatural, shape-shifting aquatic spirit\u201d that is said to haunt the waters surrounding Cromarty Firth. The first thing that comes to mind is the water horse from Frozen II, which I somehow doubt is what they\u2019re going for but always stuck in my mind because of my 4-year-old daughter. <\/p>\n

\n

This 14 year old Single Malt Scotch Whisky from selected
casks was matured in European Oak. This unique balance
of age and flavor boasts a nose with pleasurable aromas of
tangerine, poached pear, sweet confectionary and dried herbs. The palette offers notes of vanilla, red apple and mint that carry through to the long and satisfying finish with a hint of oak and spice.<\/p>\n
