In their relatively short time putting out whiskey, Teeling has made a name for themselves with their grain focusedbottlings and unique cask finishing program. The newer Single Malt expression plays to their house style, while upping the ante by using100% malt whiskeys, aged in five different wine-casks, including Sherry, Port, Madeira, White Burgundy and Cabernet Sauvignon. A complicated, yet elegantand balanced expression.

A lush nose ofwhite grapes, vanilla, toffee, unripe melon, and rich toffee.Fruit forward on the palate,with more of the white grape character, which makes this one a perfectsummertime sipper. Cashew, vanilla, oak, apricot, mango, cinnamon, tart berries, and earl grey tea notes all show up as well. Drier and more crisp than the generally sweet leaningTeeling bottlings, it’s exciting and delicious stuff from Dublin. Double Gold rating from the SF SpiritsCompetition.
