As I get to the halfway point of my little Irish “vacation”, I look at the more boutiquey side of Irish whiskey. After the first new distillery in Dublin in years, I am looking at what is currently the best-known artisanal distillery in the Emerald Isle, Dingle Distillery. Today I will review the Dingle Single Malt.
Today’s Teeling Single Pot Still review follows the Redbreast 12 in my short series on entry-level Irish whiskies. Teeling’s logo, a phoenix coming back to lie from a pot still, symbolises the long tradition of the Teeling family in Irish whisky and their rebirth. Will this translate into quality?
After a little diversion, it is time to return to the regular review program. I need a little break from Scottish Whisky to avoid fatigue. So it is time for a short Irish vacation. Today I start with a review of Midleton’s Redbreast 12, one of the Irish whiskies most suggested to beginners.
