Teeling Single Malt

The Teeling distillery is the first new distillery in Dublin for over 125 years. Their single malt expression is a vatting of 5 different wine cask finish whiskeys (Sherry, Port, Madeira, White Burgundy, Cabernet Sauvignon) bottled at 46% (now we’re getting there!).

As all the different finishes come from the same distillery this is termed a “single malt”.

The nose is very pleasing with notes of vanilla, some Bakewell tart type jamminess and citrus fruits.

Slight oiliness to the plate with some marmalade and some spice.

Rounded off by a medium length finish of slight sweetness and slight saltiness.

A very accomplished expression and one that made me sit up and take notice. This is a distillery to keep eye on.
