Teeling Whiskey Irish Small Batch: A Deep Dive into Dublin's Finest

Teeling Whiskey's Small Batch is a Dublin-born gem, a meticulously crafted blend that redefines the Irish whiskey experience. This award-winning expression stands as the distillery's flagship, showcasing their commitment to innovation and flavour.

A Blend with Depth: Grain Meets Malt

Unlike traditional Irish single malts, the Teeling Small Batch embraces a marriage of both grain and malt whiskeys. Initially matured in ex-bourbon barrels, these whiskeys are then brought together for a harmonious union. The finishing touch? A further 12 months resting in Central American rum casks, imbuing the blend with a unique and captivating twist.

Unveiling the Aroma: A Symphony of Sweetness and Spice

Pour yourself a dram of Teeling Small Batch and take a moment to appreciate the inviting aroma. Fresh, grassy notes mingle with the delicate sweetness of orange blossom, creating an invigorating first impression. Look beyond these initial notes, and a delightful complexity emerges. Hints of vanilla and allspice interweave, offering a subtle warmth that promises a flavourful journey ahead.

The Taste: A Smooth Journey with Hidden Depths

The first sip of Teeling Small Batch is a revelation in smoothness. The triple-distilled whiskey creates a luxurious mouthfeel, allowing the myriad of flavours to unfurl gracefully. Spiced notes take centre stage, reminiscent of rose petal jelly and lemon curd, perfectly balanced by the creamy sweetness of vanilla. Hints of dried herbs and cinnamon add a touch of intrigue, keeping the palate engaged.

A Lingering Finish: A Fond Farewell

As the Teeling Small Batch lingers on the palate, a delightful transition unfolds. The initial burst of spice gives way to a subtle floral and herbal character, leaving a lasting impression. A touch of caramel sweetness lingers on the tail, providing a satisfying conclusion to this flavourful odyssey.

Bottled Without Compromise: Embracing Natural Character

Teeling stays true to their commitment to quality by bottling the Small Batch at 46% ABV. This higher alcohol strength ensures the whiskey retains its full body and depth of flavour. Additionally, Teeling proudly avoids chill filtration, a process that can strip away some of the whiskey's natural characteristics. As a result, the Teeling Small Batch offers a richer, more textural experience.

Serving Suggestions: Unlocking the Full Potential

Teeling Small Batch is a versatile whiskey that can be enjoyed in a multitude of ways. Here are some suggestions to help you discover your perfect serve:

  • Neat: This is the purist's choice, allowing the whiskey's full flavour profile to shine through. Take your time, savour each sip, and appreciate the intricate interplay of aromas and tastes.
  • On the Rocks: A few ice cubes can help to open up the whiskey's aroma and soften the initial bite of the alcohol. This is a great option for those who prefer a slightly cooler dram.
  • Teeling Small Batch Cocktail: Showcase the whiskey's unique character in a well-crafted cocktail. A simple Old Fashioned, made with a rich Demerara sugar syrup and a dash of Angostura bitters, is a classic pairing. For something more adventurous, try a Teeling Twist: combine the whiskey with fresh grapefruit juice, elderflower liqueur, and a dash of soda water for a refreshing twist.
