Teeling Pineapple Rum Cask 70cl Whisky
Teeling Pineapple Rum Cask
Two epic spirits collide in magnificent fashion right here in a rather exciting collaboration between Ireland's Teeling Distillery and Plantation Rum! The folks at Teeling have taken its Small Batch blended Irish whiskey, initially matured in ex-bourbon and ex-Central American rum casks, and treated it to a further 12 month maturation in casks that previously contained the mouthwatering Plantation Pineapple Stiggins' Fancy rum. The glorious notes of charred pineapple and honeyed sweetness harmonise with the silky whiskey beautifully, making this a uniquely tropical, and tremendously sippable expression.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Fruity right away with crushed pineapple and a touch of citrus leading to floral vanilla and syrupy sponge cake.
Palate
Meaty malt and creamy grain mingle, bringing sweet vanilla, fresh stone fruits, and a hint of herbal grist, before earthy charred oak and tangy caramelised pineapples join.
Finish
Bittersweet citrus kicks in towards the finish, tangling with prickles of cracked pepper and aromatic oak. Burnt sugar, juicy pineapple, and earthen vanilla pod linger amongst the spice.
