A cracking release from Teeling, joining its Small Batch Collaborations series, this expression sees its Small batch blended Irish whiskey treated to a finish in Dark Porter casks from Dublin based brewery, Dot Brew. But where did Dot Brew get the casks from, to mature its delicious porter? It’s friends at Teeling of course! A selection of ex-Central American rum casks, previously used to marry Teeling Small Batch were filled up with glorious dark beer. Finally, the casks were emptied once again, and headed back over to Teeling to be filled back up with Small Batch, so the whiskey could finish up amongst the rich, dark, chocolatey malt notes from the porter. A splendid collab between neighbours, and ought to pair very nicely with a good dark beer.
