Inspired by the historic Blackpitts area in the Liberties, Dublin, this Peated Single Malt uses smoke from peat to dry the barley during the malting process, resulting in a distinctive smokey taste profile. However, what makes Teeling Blackpitts so unique is the triple distillation process, which reduces some of the medicinal character you would get from a traditional Scottish Peated Single Malt and allows the more barbeque smoke characteristic to shine. This is then combined with signature Teeling innovative cask maturation using both ex-bourbon and ex-Sauternes white wine casks, which is bottled at 46% with no chill filtration to produce a truly different and unique expression of Teeling and Irish Whiskey.
Notes of clove, butterscotch, orange peel and bar-b-que smoke are beautifully presented in every glass. On the palate theres flavors of honey, applewood and all spice. Served well by itself or on the rocks.
