Here, it imparts a deep, burnished gold hue and bold, dessert-like aromas and flavors: think dulce de leche, vanilla cookies, spiced cocoa and cinnamon heat.

Product Description
Maturation: Virgin Chinkapin Oak Crafted and Bottled by The Teeling Whiskey Co. Progressive Irish Whiskey Makers At Teeling Whiskey we believe in driving the evolution of Irish Whiskey through the creation of unconventional and unique expressions. Our 'Wonders of Wood' series is part of this innovative mission as we strive to push the boundaries of flavor by using unique styles of wood for maturation. Wood is an amazing sustainable and environmentally friendly material that has a huge impact on the flavour of whiskey as it matures. We are truly in wonder of the role wood plays in crafting whiskey and maintaining the health of the environment. The First Edition of our 'Wonders of Wood' bottlings consists of our single pot still crafted from a recipe of 50% malted barley and 50% unmalted barley which has been triple distilled in our Dublin distillery and fully matured in virgin Chinkapin American white oak casks. Chinkapin oak is native to North America and has a wider grain than traditional American white oak. When used for the maturation it produces a distinctive gingerbread spice and banana cake sweetness unique to Irish Whiskey.

Whisky Advocate · Jonny McCormick · 2022
This comes at you full on, though it's more about the wood than the single pot still. First impressions are savory and spicy … with a hint of mint chocolate to finish.
