Pour this when you want a whiskey that's smooth but actually has something to say. Teeling Small Batch hits you with creamy vanilla, then this lovely warm hum of dried fruit and spice that comes from time spent in old rum casks. It's bottled at a punchy 46% and never chill-filtered, so the flavour stays full and a little wild. Easy enough for a casual pour, interesting enough that you'll keep going back to the glass.
First sniff is all vanilla and orchard sweetness, with a raisin-and-spice thing going on underneath that gives away the rum casks. Take a sip and it's creamy and soft, dried fruit and apricot rolling into a gentle cinnamon tingle. The finish lingers, warm and sweet with a woody, oaky edge that keeps you coming back. Nothing harsh, nothing boring, just rounded and moreish.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it's from
This comes from Teeling, the crew that switched the stills back on in Dublin's Liberties in 2015, the first new distillery in the city in over 125 years after the place had gone quiet since the seventies. The Teeling family have been making whiskey since 1782, so they knew exactly what they were reviving. For Small Batch they take Irish grain and malt whiskey, then marry it in Central American rum casks before bottling at 46%. That rum-cask trick is the whole personality of the bottle.
