This remarkable single malt was voted World’s Best Single Malt at the 2019 World Whiskies Awards. The first time an Irish whiskey has received this prestigious award. The finishing in Sauternes wine barrels make this a truly unique Irish Whiskey. *Teeling 24 Year-Old Single Malt – 2016 & 2017 Release*
It is important to clarify the details of this award-winning whiskey.
The 2016 and 2017 releases are from the same vatting of whiskey. Distilled 1991 and following maturation the casks were vatted together and divided into 2 batches. 1 batch released in 2016 and 1 released in 2017. The tasting stock from the full vatting was entered into the awards, rather than from one particular batch from a particular year. This 24 year old whiskey was bottled in 2016 and 2017. Both whiskeys from these years are the same.
