Teeling Small Batch
This Whiskey challenges the convention of what an Irish Whiskey can be, with layers of unique flavour influenced by unconventional cask maturation techniques. Hand-selected casks of grain and malt whiskey are initially fully aged in Ex-Bourbon barrels, then married together in Central American Rum casks for up to 12 months for a unique, dried fruit profile.

Tasting Notes
Nose: An inviting nose where vanilla and spice dance with bright sweet notes of Rum.
Palate: The palate has a solid Rum influence that creates a unique smooth, sweet and slightly woody marriage that sparkles on the tongue. Exotic fruit notes push through as well.
Finish: A sweet spicy finish complimented by lingering woody undertones.
Midleton Very Rare Vintage 2020
The whiskeys used for Midleton Very Rare 2020 were selected by master distiller Brian Nation in his final days in that role. Whiskeys that were aged from 13-35 years were included in the blend and lightly charred ex-bourbon American oak were used for maturation. As always, single pot still and single grain whiskeys were chosen, but this year has a higher percentage of single pot still compared to previous vintages. Additionally, there was an increase use of refill barrels. Available in Ireland as of October 2020 with the UK, US, Australia, Germany, Canada, and Global Travel Retail to follow in the coming months.

Note: This whisky is part of an ongoing series, with variability between each release due to differences in mash bill, barrels used, age profile, and others. If the specific version is not listed, ask your server or a store employee for more info.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Initial top notes of cane sugar and vanilla intertwined with pepper and nutmeg spices, complimented by sweet orchard fruits and white chocolate fudge all layered over polished antique wood notes, showcasing an intriguing balance between spirit and wood thanks to the complex interaction from the many years spent in supreme quality oak casks.
Palate: Initial burst of tangy fruit sweetness of orange peel and sweet pear creating a succulent texture while the pot still spices build overtime adding a mild prickle of chili oil. The presence of the charred oak remains constant in the background adding balance to the fruits and spices.
Finish: Satisfyingly long finish with the fruits slowly fading, allowing the oak and spices to linger until the very end.
