Teeling Single Malt Irish Whiskey

Fire water going down, acidic finish, smooth hot steam breathing after. Tastes like caramel and heartburn.

Delicious

Tastes like Sauvignon blanc and Irish whiskey had a baby, and this is the baby. Sweet.

This is my first round with Teeling. Sample one of a three pack. Not sure what to expect out of these so let's go for a ride down the Irish whiskey rabbit hole... Nose is a little off for an Irish entry. Almost comes off as scotch like. I guess this one is just a bit funky for me. Might be the mix of the different barrels muddying the water. First sip is mellow with strong citrus notes. They might have over done it here with all these different finishes. There are lots of little things going on with marshmallow, citrus, maybe marzipan. Nothing offensive here, but nothing spectacular either. Overall this is decent. Wouldn't regret it at a bar or turn down a pour from a host at a party, but I don't see this one finding a place on my bar.
