The Teeling Vintage Reserve Collection consists of very limited releases of very rare and old Irish Single Malt whiskeys. Containing some of the oldest Single Malt Irish whiskey ever bottled, the Vintage Reserve Collection allows you to savour and appreciate Irish whiskey at its finest. The Teeling 28 Year Old Single Malt Irish Whiskey was first distilled in 1991 and matured in Bourbon casks then allowed marry in Sauternes wine casks, producing a wholly unique taste experience. The unique dual maturation imparts an extra depth of fruit flavours that perfectly complement the hint of smoke derived from the inclusion of a small portion of peated malt as part of the original ingredients used in production. This small batch bottling, limited to just 4,000 70cl bottles, were hand bottled in unique decanter bottles and come with their own certificate of authenticity. This is a follow on bottling of the same whiskey which was honoured as the World’s Best Single Malt with four years of extra maturation.

Jack Teeling, Founder and Managing Director of Teeling Whiskey commented, “We are extremely proud to be able to release these unique and high quality bottlings of Irish Single Malt during a very challenging time for our industry and more importantly, humanity. We were delayed in releasing these offerings as we all put on our hard hats, but to mark World Whiskey Day we wanted to showcase these whiskeys to the world to hopefully, along with our recently launched virtual tour, allow people to still learn more about who we are and our whiskeys.The benchmark we set ourselves for all our Teeling Whiskey bottlings has been raised due to some of the awards we have received, most notably the honour of  the World’s Best Single Malt. Thus these new offerings build on the quality of the earlier releases and I am delighted to say that these two new releases are definitely some of the best whiskeys we have ever released.  These offerings are central to our goal to help drive diversity in Irish whiskey by introducing interesting and unique small batch bottlings.”
