Teeling Small Batch Pinot Noir Cask Finish

Bold. Expressive. Crafted to captivate.
In the beating heart of Dublin’s Liberties, Teeling Whiskey continues to lead Ireland’s whiskey renaissance — daring, inventive, and always true to its roots. The Teeling Pinot Noir Cask Finish is one of its most captivating releases yet, a whiskey that bridges two great traditions: Irish distilling mastery and the refined winemaking of Reichsrat von Buhl, one of Germany’s most celebrated estates.

This limited-edition expression begins its life in ex-Bourbon barrels, developing Teeling’s signature smoothness and mellow vanilla sweetness. It then takes an extraordinary turn, finishing in Pinot Noir casks from Reichsrat von Buhl Winery, located in Germany’s sun-drenched Pfalz region. These casks, previously holding elegant red wine, impart subtle notes of ripe cherries, redcurrants, rose petals, and soft oak spice, layering the whiskey with a touch of vinous sophistication.

The result is a beautiful harmony between Ireland’s warmth and Germany’s precision — a whiskey that feels familiar yet intriguing, traditional yet adventurous. Each sip unfolds like a story: bright fruit giving way to honeyed malt, gentle spice, and a whisper of red wine tannin. It’s a testament to Teeling’s commitment to innovation, proving once again that Irish whiskey can be both timeless and daring.

For whiskey lovers in Ireland, this expression is a rare chance to experience the depth and artistry of an international collaboration — where Dublin’s bold character meets the graceful complexity of Pinot Noir from Reichsrat von Buhl.

Why we love it:
We love this whiskey because it perfectly captures Teeling’s pioneering spirit. The partnership with Reichsrat von Buhl brings a touch of European elegance to a distinctly Irish soul. The Pinot Noir influence enriches the whiskey with bright berry notes and delicate floral warmth, creating a rich, balanced profile that evolves beautifully in the glass. A whiskey to sip slowly, share proudly, and remember fondly.
