The Teeling Wonders of Wood Virgin Portuguese Oak Second Edition Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey is a remarkable expression that showcases the impact of oak on whiskey flavour. This second edition was triple distilled in the Teeling Whiskey Distillery in Dublin and matured in virgin Portuguese oak barrels. Portuguese oak, native to the Iberian Peninsula, contributes a distinct character due to its higher tannin content.
Nose: The whiskey offers a densely layered aroma with floral and fruity notes. Hints of pineapple, mango, and flowery potpourri emerge, accompanied by a whisper of salty sea air.
Taste: On the palate, the whiskey has a medium-full weight and feels soft. Warm baking spices blend with a moderate oak flavour, matching the intensity of the barley’s light toast. The sweetness level is medium-light, leaning toward honey and breakfast cereal flavours.
Finish: The finish is savoury, with marmalade-like notes and warming hints of tobacco and pepper unique to Irish whiskey.
