Teeling's Master Distiller Alex Chasko is renowned for his innovative cask selection when it comes to Irish Whiskey, creating expressions of true character. This collaboration with Akarua Winery who are located in the renowned Central Otago Wine Region on New Zealand's South Island. The Barrels previously contained their award-winning Pinto Noir Red Wine. Teeling's single malt whiskey was initially aged in bourbon barrels for the first 16 years before being finished for a further 12 months in Akarua's Red Wine Barrels. Limited to just 308 bottles, non-chill filtered and bottled at 57.4% ABV, this is truly an Irish Whiskey to savour.
