Launched in 2019 the Teeling Whiskey Renaissance is a celebratory bottling series released to mark the true Renaissance of Dublin as the epicentre of world-class, city-based distilling. Irish Whiskey has continued its amazing success story as the fastest growing premium spirits category in the world and since the Teeling Whiskey brand was reborn in 2012 the category has doubled. With the added energy and vibrancy now in the category from the numerous new entrants, Irish Whiskey has truly entered a period of Renaissance and this bottling celebrates this success.
Each release in the series will consist of rare aged Irish Single Malt that has had unique cask maturation and bottled at 46%. Each bottling comes in a high end, distinctive decanter style packaging.
The Renaissance is a key part of Teeling Whiskey’s range of award-winning Irish whiskeys, which have collected over 350 international awards in the last eight years including the title of “World’s Best Single Malt” at the 2019 World Whiskies Awards and four “World’s Best Irish Whiskey” honours at the 2021 World Whiskies Awards. The fourth bottling of The Renaissance Series consists of 18-Year-Old Single Malt that was aged initially in ex-bourbon barrels for over 16 years before being finished in high quality ex-red Pineau des Charentes fortified wine casks, imparting pressed grape and candied dried fruit flavours of apricot and pineapple character. Limited to just 9,000 bottles, the resulting Single Malt is then bottled at 46% with no chill filtration, a signature of all Teeling Whiskeys. (RRP of €140.00 for a 70cl decanter bottle in gift box)
