Immerse yourself in a true Dublin legacy with Teeling Blackpitts Single Malt Irish Whiskey. This captivating spirit draws its inspiration from the historic Blackpitts area, the home of Ireland's largest barley malting houses, located just a stone's throw away from the new Teeling Whiskey Distillery. This proximity to history lends a unique and distinctive character to Teeling's offering.
Blackpitts was known for its malting houses, where smoke from peat was used to dry barley during the malting process. The outcome of this process is a peated malt that provides a signature smoky taste profile. But the uniqueness of Teeling Blackpitts doesn't stop there. Unlike a traditional Scottish Peated Single Malt, the triple distillation process reduces the medicinal character, allowing the more barbeque smoke characteristic to shine through. This distinctive taste is further enhanced by Teeling's innovative cask maturation technique, combining ex-bourbon and ex-Sauternes white wine casks. The inspiration for these casks came from a previous bottling of Teeling 24-Year-Old Single Malt, which was honored as the "World's Best Single Malt" in 2019 at the World Whiskies Awards.
The sensory experience begins with an inviting nose where barbecue smoke and cloves are harmoniously entwined with fresh notes of butterscotch and orange peel. On the palate, a fascinating blend of Applewood smoke, honey, and allspice are beautifully married with stewed pears and fresh grilled pineapple. This whiskey finishes with the return of a savoury smoke over a lingering wood undertone, which combines delightfully with notes of salted caramel.
Tracing its lineage back to 1782 when Walter Teeling set up a small craft distillery in Dublin City, Teeling has carried forward the family's whiskey-making tradition in grand fashion. In 2015, Jack and Stephen Teeling, the latest generation of whiskey makers, opened the new Teeling Whiskey Distillery, marking the first new distillery in Dublin for over 125 years.
