Teeling Phoenix Legends Series No. 1 24 year old, 46%
Price: ● Issue: Winter 2024 ● Reviewer: Jonny McCormick ● Category: Irish Single Malt
Punchy and dry, with spice market aromas, snuff, strawberry bubble gum, salted caramel, and touches of dark chocolate and fig. Finished in a rivesaltes wine cask, this is full-flavored and smooth textured, showing jammy strawberry, apricot syrup, mandarin, lime, pistachio Turkish delight, and nectarine, with late manuka honey melting away into soft caramels. Lip-smackingly delicious with honeyed nuts and dried fruits on the finish.
