Teeling Single Malt

Far too much alcohol, burns from beginning to end. Far better whiskies out there at comparable prices. As for the strawberries and cream finish-Ha!

20th January 2020

Visiting Teeling’s distillery in Dublin. Notes dive set up. Their whiskey - not so much. Had the tour and tasting. I’m a whiskey drinker. Let me put it this way- straight was harsh-I coughed some out at the taste, with ice and water -a little less harsh, in a mixed drink-good. Jameson or Bushmill’s cheapest whiskey tastes better than Teelings. If I get Teelings as a gift I’ll use it for mixed drinks only.

Must be reviewed in the context of malted grain. Full body, but smooth. No bite, just feel and finish. Bite comes from straight grain, this has none. All the aromas on a beautiful smooth palate. Exquisite without pain.

Huge teeling fan still prefer the small batch as my go to dram but holy God Jack Stephen and Alex really know what they are doing.
With the five casks an explosion of flavours and every time u try it's a diff experience each time

Been loving my bottle! Picked one up to take to my uncle!

I find the nose quite enjoyable. It's fruity and smooth.
But then comes the taste... unfortunately it's thin and disappointing.
And I recommand you do not add water... otherwise you will definitely lose this malt.
There are better choices for the price tag.

I just tried it. I have to say, because of so many good reviews I am a but disappointed. It is not good, maximum ok. Mine is bottled 11/2017, maybe this makes a difference?

Superior single malt. Finished in FIVE casks and you can tell. My ‘whiskey journey' started with this as the obvious pick of the crop of a trio tasting in Dublin Airport. There's not much to best this under €75 other than Brabazon bottling also by Teeling.

19th January 2019

Great stuff, but not sophisticated enough to justify the price tag.

I happened to be gifted a bottle of this lovely whiskey having previously tasted just the Teeling Small Batch which incidentally I was not at all a fan of. Teeling's single malt however is a different story. A very refined and classy Irish single malt offering great complexity. The wine cask influence is very prevalent - although I do not see it noted here I get allot of the fresh and vibrant zesty notes of a Chardonnay or a Sauvignon Blanc. Pear drops, strawberries and honey all come to mind. For the price you cannot fail here. Yes it is another NAS Irish whiskey but at 46% and non-chill filtered kudos have to go to Teeling here for producing a very satisfying and approachable dram

Tried first the Teeling Small Batch, this Single Malt is hands down the winner. Also better than Hyde Rum cask (which is exceptional) and also the Bushmills 10 year old single Malt. This is the best Irish whiskey I have ever tried.

6th January 2018

This is a lovely fruity and surprising Irish whiskey that does benefit from time to open up a bit. I found the nose went from citrus astringent to mellow sweetness, the palate is both fruity and spicy at once and I agree with the note of strawberry which lingers into the finish and on the tongue. A keeper, another dessert whiskey for the cabinet.

12th December 2016

That is definitely an Irish whisky but not boring as could be a mere Jameson. Besides I'm quite happy that for once I was fully able to find the same tastes as MoM so I confirm, you need to focus but yes there is a hint of strawberry on the palate and when you swallow, after 2 seconds you find the strawberry and indeed the cream. A nice dram.

10th December 2016

I have drunk many whiskies in my time 10 year old 12,14,even the royal salute but Teeling has got me hooked line and sinker I don't think I will ever leave it

4th November 2016

I made the switch over to whiskey from rum recently, after trying a whiskey called Writer's Tears at Garryowen's Pub in Gettysburg, PA (the best Irish pub in America). It was like nothing I've ever had. I purchased my first bottle of bourbon whiskey at a cost of $36 from a NY distillery and did not like it. I knew of Teelings and Tyconnell and decided to do a little research. I liked what I had read about Teeling's Single Malt so I bought it at $66 USD. It was exactly what I had in mind. I knew that if I wanted a whiskey of good quality, I needed to get it from the country that made it famous. Irish Wiskey and Kentucky bourbon whiskey are so different. I just hope I can hang on to this expensive bottle for longer than the week, haha.

Like sliced strawberries left to masseratte in sugar & balsamic viniger then served with Elmlea Double Cream, that oily mouth feel makes u almost wanna chew mmmm.... No wonder this has gone up a fiver since its release a short while ago.
Marked against Redbreast 12 (yes I kno that its pot stilled but I think the closest 1 taste/price wise) its -
Less smooth & slighy spicier.
Less sweet bailies cream but more cornflakes with honey.
Overall its way more intresting once u get past initial kick.
This is 1 I will revisit b4 the original batch runs out.

10th August 2016

Some people complain that Irish whiskies, while usually smoother than their Scottish counterparts, are not as complex and even "boring" (gasp!)

Those people need to try this bad boy - there's plenty going on here.

Non-chill filtered. Five different cask varieties. No wonder it won awards.

2nd June 2016

It's good, but nothing to write home about.

I wouldn't buy a bottle for 50 EUR, too expensive for what it is.

Nose, taste and finish are common. I will forget this whiskey tomorrow.

2nd April 2016

We first tried this at the new Teelings Distillery in Dublin a few weeks ago...right after meeting John Teeling, the distillery owner's father. A little different than the pot stills we came to know and love while in Ireland, but among the best Irish we can find here in the U.S. And if you haven't tried the Teelings 21 Silver Edition, find it; pricey but oh, so fantastic. Can't wait to visit Teelings again on our next trip to the Emerald Isle.

28th February 2016

This is a great whiskey. Very fruity notes and a lovely smooth finish. If you enjoy this then I would recommend Green Spot. Similar flavours but with a smooth finish (and cheaper!)

22nd January 2016

Best bar none in its price range.

15th January 2016

A great Irish Wiskey! I always keep a bottle on my shelf.

29th December 2015

Amazing Irish Single Malt with full range of flavors up there with the best

17th November 2015

Great value for money for me so easy to drink. I call this my doughnut whiskey as the nose and taste for me reminds me of a heavenly doughnut. So good infact i have visited the distillery 6 times since it opened a few months ago - Ash

29th August 2015

Teeling single malt is a very good whiskey. Perhaps the best value-for-money you can find. I will be back för more, thats for sure...

15th August 2015

Beautiful notes of stone fruits with soft nectarines and peaches. Soft and creamy mouthfeel with lovely buttery toffee and mellow spice. Moreish! Will be back for more.

8th April 2015

Another impressive offering from Teeling & look forward to the whisky from its new Dublin home when it is ready.This is a cross between The best offerings of Bushmills & redbreast with its juicy black fruit and aromatic spice & chewy yet mellow oak.You can really taste the wine cask elements here with notes of fig rolls,cherry liquorice sticks & buttery old fashioned toffee.A dram of this was not enough! The whisky flaneur

10th March 2015

Fruit punch that backs a kick.

6th March 2015

21st February 2015
