Teeling
launch their unique Irish Single Grain
whiskey into the American market.
The
innovative bunch at the Teeling Whiskey
Company have already released their
award winning Teeling Small Batch Rum
Cask finished Irish whiskey to critical
acclaim in the US and they have now
announced they are now launching their
new Teeling Single Grain Irish whiskey
into the American market.
As you will probably already know the US
whiskey industry is known for its
corn/grain based whiskey but you may not
know the current world champion in this
whiskey category doesn't come from the
US, it comes from Ireland. To be more
precise it is bottled by the Dublin
based Teeling Whiskey Company.
The release of the Teeling Single Grain
whiskey is sure to help drive the
selection and breadth within Irish
whiskeys at a time of growing interest
in the United States for more
innovative, unique and flavoursome Irish
expressions.
Teeling Single Grain is produced using a
very unique maturation process fully
maturing the whiskey in Californian red
wine barrels. The whiskey is made by
combining unique ingredients, with
maize/corn dominating and uses modern
column distillation to produce the
whiskey, which is exceptionally clean
and smooth with a touch of sweetness.
Jack Teeling, founder of the Teeling
Whiskey Company, commented, "It’s a
little known fact that the majority of
Irish whiskey sold is actually Grain
whiskey so we feel it is interesting to
have expressions of Single Grain whiskey
in its own right. Our Teeling Single
Grain is representative of our aim to
help drive the expansion of the Irish
whiskey category through unique
bottlings and expressions."
The new whiskey has not gone unnoticed
since it was first released. The Teeling
Single Grain Irish whiskey was recently
awarded World’s Best Grain Whiskey at
the World Whiskies Awards for 2014.
First held in 2007, the World Whiskies
Awards, run by Whisky Magazine, search
for the very best whiskeys in the world.
This competition saw more than 300
whiskeys put through their paces with
three rounds of rigorous tastings, to
win the coveted title of the "World's
Best".
The Teeling family whiskey heritage
dates back to distilling in Dublin in
1782 and Walter Teeling who set up a
distillery in Marrowbone Lane in the
Liberties. Jack and his brother Stephen,
Sales & Marketing Director, are just the
latest generation of Teelings involved
in the Irish whiskey industry. While
initially starting out as an Independent
bottler their aim is to bring Teeling
Whiskey home by establishing the first
new whiskey distillery in Dublin in over
125 years.
