Teeling Single Malt (cask 14972) Calvados Cask | 700ML

Teeling continues its habit of using interesting casks to finish its whiskey, in this case, a Calvados cask. An exclusive to us, this Irish whiskey was selected by yours truly because it's very delicious and interesting. It was made with 100% malted barley before spending its entire maturation period in a cask that previously held the aforementioned apple-tastic French brandy. Just 330 bottles were taken from this single cask before the whiskey was bottled without filtration at 62.5% ABV.

Finish: A good length with dried fruits and honey.

Distillery Information

Teeling Distillery was officially opened in 2015. The brand’s history in actually stretches back to 1782, when a chap called Walter Teeling set up a distillery in the Liberties area of Dublin. Fast-forward to the present (not forgetting the era when John Teeling owned the Cooley Distillery, before selling it to Beam in 2011) and the Teelings are again at the forefront of Irish distilling. Teeling identifies as a ‘progressive’ distillery. The team, led by Jack Teeling, his brother Stephen, and master distiller Alex Chasko, are leading the Irish whiskey innovation charge. From the ‘re-imagined’ Dublin porter recipes and proprietary fermentation techniques used to create the Teeling wash to the three different stills in operation, the team pushes what’s possible in Irish whiskey-making to create delicious drinks. Teeling's pioneering attitude is underscored by the fact that a whopping 25% of annual production is dedicated to whiskey experiments. Exciting stuff. What does this mean for Teeling whiskey? While the new distillery’s spirit comes of age, Teeling is releasing liquid that showcases the style and character we can expect from years to come. From the flagship (and tasty) Single Malt to expressions like the Brabazon series which celebrate the history of whiskey distilling in Dublin, the Teeling range is well worth exploring.
