Teeling Single Grain
Country: Ireland
Region:
Type: Single Grain
Bottler: Teeling Whiskey Company
ABV: 46%
Score: 90 Points
This Irish single grain (distillery not specified, but presumably from Cooley) was matured in California red wine casks. The nose has a nice balance of allspice, cardamom, and ginger spices along with red apples, a touch of red grapes, honey, and milk chocolate. The taste starts off peppery and intense, with a mouth-watering raspberry jam note coming out as the spices start to fade along with touches of red grapes, oak, and a slight ashiness. The finish is long and dry with fading spices, honey, and a touch of oak tannins. Very nice. (February, 2015)
