Crafted through a collaborative effort between the Head Distiller and Head Cooper, this expression ventures into innovative territory by pushing the boundaries of barrel-charring techniques. The resulting whisky showcases a harmonious blend of dry-biscuit maltiness, indulgent raisin fruitiness, delicate wood-aged nuances, and a lingering hint of smokiness.
Tasting Note by Morris Australian: Nose: A combination of clean white smoke mingling with raisin fruits and blackberry jam initially. The smoke dissipates to release the rich and complex Morris Muscat characters.Palate: Hints of charred pineapple with a light dusting of smoked paprika. Dark sugars appear without any cloying character, followed by the elegant acidity of crisp apple which evolves leaving a dry finish on the palate.Finish: The flavours shift gear on the palate leaving you feeling like you’ve just experienced chili infused dark chocolate, dipped in subtle smoked apple jam.

Inspired by Dublin's historic Blackpitts area adjacent to the Teeling Whiskey Distillery, renowned for its malting houses, Teeling Blackpitts stands out with its unique approach. Utilising peat smoke to dry barley during malting imbues the resulting Peated Single Malt with a distinct smoky flavour—a hallmark of the region.
What sets Teeling Blackpitts apart is its triple distillation process, tempering the medicinal qualities found in Scottish Peated Single Malts and enhancing the barbeque smoke essence. This exceptional flavor is further enriched by innovative cask maturation in ex-bourbon and ex-Sauternes white wine casks, bottled at 46% without chill filtration.
Tasting Note by Teeling:Nose: An inviting nose where barbeque smoke and cloves are intermingled with fresh notes of butterscotch and orange peel.Palate: On the pallet a fascinating blend of Applewood smoke, honey and all spice are married with stewed pears and fresh grilled pineapple. This whiskey finishes with the return of a savoury smoke over a lingering wood undertone, which combines delightfully with notes of salted caramel.
