Teeling Rolls Out More Irish Whiskey For St. Patrick’s Day
It is not likely that you will have a shortage of Irish whiskies to select from in two weeks when St. Patrick’s Day rolls around, but you will have at least one more as the Teeling Whiskey Company has released their 2016 Single Barrel Irish single malt whiskey series that involves 12 individual casks. The 2016 U.S. Single Barrel version consists of 13 Year Old Single Malt Irish whiskey distilled in 2002, and initially matured in ex-bourbon barrels for the first 12 years before being finished exclusively in ex-White Port barrels from the Carcavelos region of Portugal famous for its beautiful light fragrant fruity flavor.
The Teeling Whiskey Company is the first whiskey producer to ever use this type of White Port barrel to age whiskey and deliver a truly unique taste that works perfectly with the underlying taste characteristics of Irish whiskey. Each bottle of Single Malt is numbered, hand filled and bottled in its most natural form at cask/barrel strength.
The Teeling Whiskey Single Barrel Series will retail for $85 per bottle and will be available in March 2016 at the 10 U.S. states – Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Kentucky, Minnesota, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, Texas and Wisconsin.
