Teeling Wonders Of Wood: Portuguese Virgin Oak Single Pot Still 50%

50% | 70cl | NCF | Irish Whiskey | Single Pot Still | Limited Edutuib

The second edition of Teeling Wonders of Wood Series is fully matured in Virgin Portuguese Oak casks. Portuguese oak is native to the Iberian Peninsula and has a higher tannin content than other oak variants normally used in the whiskey industry. When used for maturation it produces a distinct savoury marmalade flavour with warming hints of tobacco and pepper unique to Irish Whiskey.

This whiskey is bottled at 50% abv, and is made from a mash bill of 50% malted barley and 50% unmalted barley. In partnership with the Tree Council of Ireland, each release in the Wonders of Wood series will help to plant exclusively native Irish tree Species in Teeling’s very own designated acre of land in Ireland.
