Each release in the Rising Series features a carefully selected 21-year-old Single Malt that undergoes a dual maturation process, drawing out exceptional depth and character from unique cask finishes. This series honors the legacy of Teeling’s Revival and Renaissance ranges while pushing the boundaries with intricate flavors and cask experimentation.
- Rising Reserve No.1: The debut expression, a 21-year-old single malt, was initially aged in bourbon casks before being finished in Carcavelos casks, a rare Portuguese fortified wine. This unique finish infuses the whiskey with vibrant citrus and orchard fruit notes, complemented by hints of caramel and oak, bottled at 46% ABV without chill filtration.
- Rising Reserve No.2: Continuing the series, this 21-year-old single malt was aged in ex-bourbon casks and then finished for three years in Marsala casks from Sicily. This maturation imparts dark fruit richness, balancing sweetness with a layered complexity that whiskey enthusiasts appreciate.?
- Rising Reserve No.3: The latest addition to the series is also a 21-year-old single malt, aged for 18 years in bourbon barrels, then finished for three years in ruby Port casks. This expression offers a luxurious, long finish with notes of red fruits, chocolate, and warm spices, marking it as one of Teeling’s most profound releases?.
With its combination of tradition, innovation, and premium quality, the Rising Series sets a new standard for Irish whiskey. These limited releases not only showcase the evolution of Teeling but also invite collectors and connoisseurs to experience the rich tapestry of flavors achieved through dedicated cask finishes.
