Whiskey Wednesday (Patreon)

Tonight's whiskey is Teeling Single Grain. I actually tasted it last night in my first ever virtual whiskey tasting date. But, I loved it so much, I had to have it again tonight. It's super smooth and light, just perfect for summer.

There are only an elite few Irish single grain whiskies out there at the moment, but Teeling went ahead and made theirs unique by maturing it in Californian Cabernet Sauvignon casks for five years.

Here are some notes from Master of Malt.

Nose: Honeyed apple flesh and red grape, sweet and slightly floral with fragrant vanilla and spice, evaporated milk and brown sugar.

Palate: There's treacle (British dessert) on the palate, but it's light and buttery with dried cranberry developing.

Finish: Into golden syrup tart and sweet egg custard now with spicy cereal.
