Teeling Small Batch Irish Whiskey (700ml)
Note: Product has come from a private collection and as such has some minor scuffing/scratches/handling marks. Actual product not pictured.
A rum cask finished Teeling, which is one in a series of Small Batch releases with differing wood regimes. 46% Alc./Vol. Non chill filtered.
Other reviews... Certainly the delivery ticks all the boxes and offers an innate light treacle sweetness. But there is an intruding semi-bitterness, almost like hop - which interrupts the nose and finish and spoils the party a bit. Odd. 86 points - Jim Murray's Whisky Bible 2022
...The first conventional release from this fledgling company. Irish whiskey's equivalent to a seemingly frothy sweet pop song, which on closer inspection has barbed and cutting lyrics. It's a sweet Irish blend and seems like it. But it has a high malt content, is packed with flavor, and it easily justifies its price. It's creamy and rich with toffee notes, there's some tropical fruit and delicious rum-and-raisin milk chocolate. Not too cloying despite the sweetness, either. 89 points - whiskyadvocate.com
