Teeling Single Malt Tequila Cask is a California-exclusive Irish whiskey finished in ex-tequila casks, distilled from 100% malted barley and bottled at 50% ABV, non-chill filtered.
A bold, boundary-pushing release from Dublin's Teeling Whiskey, crafted exclusively for the California market. This single malt was matured in traditional oak before finishing in ex-tequila casks — an unusual twist that amplifies Teeling's fruit-forward house style with herbal, citrusy, earthy complexity. Distilled entirely from 100% malted barley, bottled at 50% ABV and non-chill filtered for exceptional depth, texture, and a lively natural finish. Founded by Jack and Stephen Teeling in Dublin's historic Liberties district, the distillery carries on a whiskey legacy dating back to 1782 and has earned global acclaim, including World's Best Single Malt and World's Best Single Grain honors at the World Whiskies Awards.
