Teeling Single Grain Whiskey

Let sit for about a minute. 👀: Very light golden hue, structurally thin but expansive legs; 👃: Immediate woods, baking spices and fruit, sweetness peeks out from within; 👅: Full-bodied taste full of sweet malts, dry finish, fruits in the middle; 🏁: Dry but lasting finish, tasty and full.

Nose - Green apples, oak spice, and sweet vanilla. Hint of coconut. Taste - Corn syrup, fruity. Finish - Medium to long length. Metallic/vodka aftertaste. On the nose, this smells like a wheated bourbon blended with Irish shortbread. Very sweet and pleasant. On the palate, there's an initial burst of flavor and ethanol bite, but it's immediately turned down, sort of like when you start your car, but you forgot how loud the stereo was and you rush to turn the volume down. The finish is sweet and clingy. It tastes like a sugar and syrup solution. There's a hint of the metallic taste I get from Jameson that I typically associate with neutral spirits/vodka. I prefer the Teeling Small Batch to this, but it is still an enjoyable whiskey. I would call it simple compared to Teeling's other offerings, but more complex than many of the other, cheaper Irish whiskies I have tried

This is the Irish whiskey I took the leap from Traditional to Craft. Still has that Irish classic. The wine barrels play the part in dryness. Nose and finish. It's no Tennessee whiskey by any means; with all that corn and all. Still Irish. Think, how a craft brewery brews Lagers? Would be a crowd pleaser at a bonfire or around Christmas. My most likely go to for Teeling.
