Teeling, Renaissance Series No.5, Calvados Cask, 18-Year-Old, Single Malt Whiskey, Ireland (46%)

Description

At first the nose on the Teeling 18yo Calvados Cask makes you do a double take. It could be Calvados with baked apples, cinnamon and a glistening hint of sweet herbs dominating. However, the palate tells you this is firmly whisky.

Golden raisins and wood spice mingle with a finish of apple pie, maple syrup and a gentle piquant of pink peppercorns. There is a deep intensity in this dram yet a pleasing freshness and fruitiness, a multi-layered experience.

Barley

Barley is a key ingredient in the production of some of the world's most renowned spirits, particularly whiskey and Scotch whisky. Malted barley is used as the primary grain in many single malt and blended Scotch whiskies, where it contributes a distinct malty, nutty, and sometimes smoky flavour profile. In addition to Scotch, barley is also a staple in the production of Irish whiskey, where it often lends a smoother, creamier taste. The versatility of barley as a grain makes it a favorite for creating complex and deeply nuanced spirits cherished by enthusiasts worldwide.
