Teeling

After being somewhat disappointed from a myriad of Irish whiskeys in the past, from highly-rated 30+ year old Bushmills to 1990s Teeling to Knappogue Castles, I decided to give this sherried Teeling a try as recommended by House Welley. Beautiful bottle & color but more importantly this is probably the most impressive Teeling I’ve drank! The only downside is that finish gets a bit too sweet for my liking & the price for the full bottle is too high imo (800-900£ at auctions)

One of the few Irish whiskeys that I have in my inventory of ~500 bottles; always a pleasant surprise whenever I pour a dram of these, especially bottles are the respectable age of 25+. A good, easy to drink Irish whiskey but not outstanding, too thin & definitely lacks some oomph; I normally don’t like Rum cask but this was better than expected
