Tasting Notes For Teeling Brabazon Volume IV 13 Year Old Carcavelos Cask

Nose: Fresh melon and pear, with a drizzle of runny toffee. A subtle touch of citrus zestiness develops later on.

Taste:  Softly oaky, with a hint of warm hay, swiftly followed by a wealth of crisp apple and white grape notes.

Finish: Subtly chocolatey on the finish, with a hint of stem ginger.

  • The highly anticipated fourth release from the Brabazon series. This whiskey is a celebration of the old and the new. This is 13 year old single malt, produced with Carcevelos (white port) barrels from Portugal, a style of fortified wine dating back to the 18th century. Filled with Teeling's single malt distilled in 2007 and left to mature here for over two years. Initially aged in port casks followed by a finishing period of over two years in Carcevelos White Port Barrels . Limited to just 10,000 bottles and bottled at a tasty 49.5% abv.

  • With the opening of the Teeling distillery in 2012, whiskey making has came back to the city that was once the epicentre of the world whiskey trade. Following the relocation of Powers to Midleton in Co.Cork in the 1970’s, not one drop of whiskey had been distilled in the Irish capital for almost 40 years, and not one new distillery had opened in 125 years.

    In a sense, this is also a homecoming for the Teeling family, as their love affair with Ireland’s national drink also started in Dublin, when in 1782 Walter Teeling set up a craft distillery on Marrowbone Lane in the Liberties area of Dublin. The family have been involved in the whiskey industry since that day, with John Teeling being responsible for setting up the first new distillery in the whole of Ireland in over 100 years when he opened the Cooley distillery in 1987, with his sons Jack and Stephen following in his footsteps by opening the Teeling distillery. On the very forefront, and one could argue partly responsible for the revival of whiskey making in Ireland, big things are expected.

    With that kind of pedigree behind the project, you could rightfully be very excited to see what Teeling come up with, and they certainly don’t disappoint.  Marrying Irish whiskey making traditions, with modern innovations, every whiskey that has came out of this distillery has won multiple awards. It’s still early days, but all indications are that this will be a most triumphant return of whiskey making to the world’s original whiskey making capital.
