The Teeling Sommelier Selection Small Batch Series Margaux Wine Cask is a distinguished expression from the renowned Teeling Whiskey Company. As the inaugural release in their Sommelier Selection, this limited edition whiskey showcases a masterful finish in ex-casks of Margaux wine from the Bordeaux region, resulting in a truly sophisticated and unique flavor profile.
Founded in 2012 by Jack Teeling, with his brother Stephen joining later, the Teeling Whiskey Company is located in the heart of Dublin. Jack, the former proprietor of Cooley Distillery, acquired 16,000 casks of aged stock when Cooley was sold to Beam Suntory in 2011. This precious stock now forms the foundation of Teeling's exceptional offerings, which blend tradition with innovative craftsmanship.
This limited edition release, with only 7,500 bottles produced, boasts an ABV of 46% and comes in a 700ml bottle. The whiskey's smooth and velvety texture is immediately evident. Upon tasting, one is greeted by a lush medley of cherries and plums, followed by intricate spicy notes. The mid-palate reveals a delightful presence of tannins, enriched with flavors of red fruits and a subtle hint of blond tobacco. The finish is complex, offering a harmonious interplay of silky tannins and Teeling's signature richness.
On the nose, this whiskey presents an enticing bouquet of red fruits, dark cherries, strawberries, cranberries, red currants, lemon, marzipan, and a touch of orange marmalade. Its taste profile is oily and creamy, with sweet undertones of dark chocolate, complemented by spicy hints of cinnamon, nutmeg, pepper, and chili, as well as fruity nuances of oranges, lemons, strawberries, and bananas. The finish is rather long, leaving a lingering impression of red fruits, oak, spice, and cocoa.
This limited edition whiskey is finished in ex-casks of Margaux wine from the Bordeaux region, which imparts a unique and sophisticated flavor profile that sets it apart from other whiskeys.
