Special Features:

Teerenpeli Portti follows its bourbon maturation with an extended finish in port wine casks. The single malt first spends three to four years in small ex-bourbon casks with a capacity of 140 litres, then a year and a half in port wine casks. This combination shapes its fruity, wine-like and bittersweet character.

Portti means “gate” in Finnish and also alludes to port wine. The bottling has been part of the distillery’s range since 2016. Teerenpeli uses malted barley and local groundwater in its production. The whisky is bottled at 43% without added colouring or chill filtration; the 0.5-litre bottle comes in gift packaging.

Tasting Notes:

  • Nose: On the nose, pronounced fruit notes and caramelised sugar meet malty sweetness. Wine-like notes and vanilla round out the bouquet.
  • Palate: The whisky feels soft and bittersweet on the palate, with port wine notes and a hint of black pepper. Dry, spicy notes add nuances of nutmeg and white pepper.
  • Finish: The finish lingers with a fiery warmth.

Distillery/Bottler:

The family-run Teerenpeli Distillery was founded in Lahti in 2002, bringing Anssi Pyysing’s idea of a Finnish single malt distillery to life. Its original site is in the Taivaanranta restaurant in the city centre. In 2015, a larger distillery was added in Lotila, connected to the Teerenpeli brewery. Distillation takes place in traditional copper pot stills made in Scotland. The original site remains in operation for product development and smaller special batches.

Teerenpeli works with Finnish malted barley and uses groundwater filtered through the gravel formations of Salpausselkä, which were formed during the Ice Age. Much of the barley is grown within 150 kilometres of the distillery. Since 2015, its own wood pellet plant has supplied process heat for the brewery and distillery. The pellets are made from residues from Finnish sawmills, while the electricity used comes from wind and hydropower.
