Teeling Small Batch Irish Whiskey

Description

This award-winning handcrafted whiskey is distilled from grain and malt, aged in ex-bourbon barrels and finished in rum casks. The nose is quite floral, with notes of vanilla and rum-raisin ice cream. On the palate, flavours of dried fruit, spice and vanilla invitingly coat the palate. Enjoy neat or in cocktails.

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.
