Irish Whiskey / Whisky

This 13 year old release from Teeling has been matured initially in ex-bourbon casks and then in ex-Bordeaux Red Wine Casks. It has been made with a mash bill of 95% corn and 5% malted barley that has been triple distilled.

Named after an area behind the Teeling distillery in Dublin, this new expression is triple distilled and made from heavily peated barley, matured in ex-bourbon and ex-sauternes casks. The nose opens with BBQ smokey aromas, along with cloves, butterscotch and orange peel. To taste, apple-wood smoke and honey join flavours of poached pear and grilled pineapple. An exciting new whisky from Jack Teeling and family.

Poitin (pronounced po-cheen) is a a clear, unaged moonshine traditionally made in a pot still from potatoes or any grain and bottled at extremely high strengths. These days Poitin such as this one from Teeling is the spirit made at a whiskey distillery such as Cooley. Bottled at 52.5% this is an authentic taste of Ireland's original spirit, and not something to be taken lightly!

This is the first release from Teeling's new distillery in Dublin. The Single Pot Still is made from 50% unmalted spring barley and 50% malted barley which is then triple distilled and matured in a combination of virgin oak, ex-wine and ex-bourbon barrels. The nose has notes of hibiscus flowers, honeycomb, white grapes and uplifting grapefruit and citrus. The palate has lychee, white grapes and white pepper. The finish is dry with warming spice, roasted almonds and sweet maple sugar.

Fully matured in Californian red wine barrels resulting in an intensely fruity and beautifully amber liquid, with lush berry notes. Hand selected casks, bottled at 46% with no chill filtration and matured in Californian red wine barrels which results in a fruity dram with sweet berry notes and vanilla.The finish dominated by wood and sweet spice.

This is the first single malt release from the Teeling Whisky Company and their Dublin distillery, the city's first new whiskey in over 125 years. It has a vibrant nose, with notes of melon, fig and toffee. The taste is balanced with flavours of dried fruits, citrus, vanilla and sweet spice, finishing with a mellow, sweet oaky character.
