The new 13-Year-Old Single Grain consists of triple distilled Irish whiskey distilled predominantly from maize, initially matured for 9 years in ex-Bourbon barrels before being given extra maturation for over 4 years in ex-Bordeaux Red Wine casks and bottled at 50% ABV to capture all its natural flavour.
This release is Teeling Whiskey’s second and oldest release of Single Grain. It follows on from their multi-award winning core offering which was first released in 2013 and has been honoured on numerous occasions as the World’s Best Irish Single Grain.
