Frequently Asked Questions

What makes this Teeling different from regular Small Batch?

This Notre Dame edition features the same award-winning Small Batch Irish whiskey base but adds special Notre Dame-themed packaging and presentation, making it a unique collectible while maintaining the signature rum cask finish that gives Teeling Small Batch its distinctive vanilla and tropical fruit character.

How does the rum cask finishing affect the flavor?

The rum cask finish adds layers of vanilla sweetness, brown sugar notes, and subtle tropical fruit influences that complement Irish whiskey's natural grain character. This creates a smoother, more approachable profile compared to traditional Irish whiskeys finished in bourbon or sherry casks.

Is this good for someone new to Irish whiskey?

Absolutely - this whiskey offers an excellent introduction to modern Irish whiskey with its balanced sweetness, approachable 46% ABV, and smooth character. The rum cask influence makes it particularly appealing to those who enjoy sweeter spirits or flavored whiskeys.

Should I drink this neat or in cocktails?

This whiskey excels both neat and in cocktails. Neat, you'll appreciate the rum cask complexity and vanilla sweetness. In cocktails, it brings unique character to Irish coffee, whiskey sours, or simple highballs while the Notre Dame theme makes it perfect for tailgate punch recipes.

How does this compare to other Teeling expressions?

This shares the same Small Batch DNA as Teeling's core expression but with collectible Notre Dame packaging. If you enjoy the regular Teeling Small Batch, you'll love this version, with the added bonus of unique presentation that makes it gift-worthy and collectible.
