Teeling Wonders of Wood Virgin Portuguese Oak Finish

Teeling Wonders of Wood Virgin Portuguese Oak Finish is a bold exploration of flavor, continuing the distillerys commitment to innovation and craftsmanship in Irish whiskey. This limited-edition release is part of the award-winning Wonders of Wood series, which was crowned “World’s Best Pot Still” at the 2022 World Whiskies Awards. Bottled at 50% ABV, this whiskey retains its full, unadulterated character, showcasing the depth and complexity Teeling is known for.

The mashbill, a balanced blend of 50% malted and 50% unmalted barley, stays true to the tradition of Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey. What sets this release apart is its finishing in Virgin Portuguese Oak casks, a rare choice in whiskey maturation. Portuguese oak has a higher tannin content compared to American or French oak, imparting a distinctive, rich flavor profile to the whiskey. The result is a remarkable whiskey with savory marmalade notes, complemented by warming undertones of tobacco and subtle spices.

Crafted in Dublin’s first new distillery in over a century, this whiskey honors both tradition and innovation. With only a limited number of bottles produced, each comes in an elegantly embossed Teeling bottle with a gift-ready case, making it a perfect collector’s item or gift for whiskey enthusiasts seeking something truly unique.
