Teeling Small Batch Irish Whiskey

Description

Awarded Best Blended Irish Whiskey at the 2018 Irish Whiskey Awards. Aged in hand-picked casks and finished in rum barrels. In the glass, a brilliant yellow gold. Light, smooth and sweet on the palate, with notes of burnt sugar, tropical fruit, vanilla and spice.

Tasting Notes

Jack Teeling comes from a family steeped in the history and making of Irish whiskey. This independent bottling of the Teeling Whiskey Company is non-chill filtered and finished in ex-Flor de Cana rum barrels to give an extra sweet, smooth flavour. Pale amber, it has a gentle, sweet entry on the palate with vanilla, spice and sweet notes of rum. It finishes firm with an undertone of spice and wood. Very approachable and friendly, it will appeal to both whisky neophytes and aficionados. Score - 91. (Margaret Swaine, winealign.com, Oct. 14, 2014)

Serving Suggestion

The subtlety of Irish whiskey would be a good companion for a selection of local cheeses, served with freshly baked soda bread.
