TEELING SMALL BATCH IRISH WHISKEY
Country: Ireland (specifically produced in Dublin).
Alcohol Volume (ABV): 46% (92 Proof).
Sugar Content: Approximately 0 g/L.
Food Pairings:
The rum cask finish gives this whiskey a distinct sweetness and tropical fruit profile, making it highly versatile for food:
Savory & Meats: Pairs excellently with steak (the barrel char complements grilled meat) and charcuterie like salami, where saltiness brings out the whiskey's fruity notes.
Seafood: Complements smoked salmon or grilled seafood due to its light, fresh character.
Sweet: Works well with vanilla panna cotta, fruit tarts, or even vanilla ice cream, which enhances its natural honey and vanilla tones.
Mixing Recommendations:
Its higher-than-average 46% ABV ensures it doesn't get lost when mixed.
Simple Mixers: Ginger ale or ginger beer with a squeeze of lime is a classic "Dublin Mule" serve.
Signature Cocktails: Irish Coffee: An ideal base due to its dark sugar and spice notes.
Whiskey Sour: The rum-influenced sweetness balances the tart lemon juice perfectly.
Old Fashioned/Manhattan: Its bold profile stands up well to bitters and vermouth in spirit-forward classics.
Teeling Iced Tea: A distillery favourite using Teeling Small Batch, Aperol, fruit tea, lemon juice, and ginger liqueur.
