Teeling Alentejo 70CL 46°
Teeling Alentejo is an Irish whiskey from the limited collection of the Dublin-based Teeling distillery. It is distinguished by its maturation in red wine casks from Portugal's Alentejo region, renowned for its robust, opulent wines.
After initial aging in bourbon oak casks, Teeling Alentejo is finished in Portuguese red wine casks, giving it the fruity, tannic notes characteristic of Alentejo wines.
It presents aromas of ripe red fruit and sweet spices, enhanced by a hint of vanilla and a smooth texture due to the wine.
This whisky illustrates Teeling's innovation in experimenting with different finishes to enrich its whiskies with singular profiles, and its maturation in Alentejo casks gives it a fruity richness and captivating complexity.

TWC is an independent distillery founded by Jack and Stephen Teeling, John’s son, who established the Cooley distillery in 1987.
The Teeling family has been crafting Irish whiskey since 1782, date on which Walter Teeling founded one of the 38 Dubnlin distilleries in Marrowbone Lane in the area of Liberties. This is also in this area, at the heart of Dublin, this Jack and Stephen Teeling opened their own distillery, more than 200 years after their ancestor.
Unlike other Irish distilleries triple-distilling their whiskey, this new distillery distils only twice (pot still) just like the Cooley distillery. It is the only distillery to produce pot still whiskey in all of Dublin. Moreover, Teeling likes varying the whiskey finishes, imparting a real gourmet edge to the traditional Irish character.
