Aromatic substance add mixed pain + north

Balm (aromatic) + ache (pain) +n = Balmenach?

Fits the clue. Tean sounds like Teen = youth

It was ChrisE who got it really. I only googled his suggestion out of interest as I'd never heard of it. I take no credit.

Hi again - been out all day.
I only suggested it hesitatingly as there is an "N" short in the parsing, as far as I can see.
TEAN I (n) INCH
or, as rossim had it
TEAN IN I (n) CH
