Teeling 30-Year-Old Vintage Reserve Single Malt Irish Whiskey

Regular price £1,800.00

Exquisite, rare, and profoundly complex, Teeling 30-Year-Old Vintage Reserve Single Malt stands as one of Ireland’s most distinguished whiskeys. Distilled in 1991 and matured for 25 years in bourbon barrels, followed by five years in French Sauternes casks, it offers extraordinary depth and harmony.

Bottled at 46% ABV, non-chill filtered, and released in extremely limited quantities, it reveals layers of honey, peach, apricot, vanilla, and oak spice, woven into a luxurious, velvety texture.

A testament to three decades of patient maturation and Teeling’s modern Dublin revival, Teeling 30-Year-Old is an icon of Irish whiskey excellence - elegant, timeless, and crafted for true connoisseurs.

Overview & Distillery

A masterpiece of time, patience, and precision, Teeling 30-Year-Old Vintage Reserve is one of Ireland’s oldest and rarest single malts. Crafted from carefully selected casks distilled in 1991, it represents the pinnacle of the Teeling Vintage Reserve Collection — a series dedicated to showcasing the finest aged Irish whiskeys.

Aged for a full 25 years in ex-bourbon barrels before a 5-year finishing period in Sauternes wine casks, this extraordinary whiskey achieves exceptional depth and elegance. Bottled at 46% ABV and non-chill filtered, it retains its full natural richness and complexity.

Founded by brothers Jack and Stephen Teeling, the Teeling Whiskey Company revived Dublin’s historic distilling legacy when it opened the city’s first new distillery in over 125 years in 2015. The Teeling family’s whiskey heritage, however, dates back to 1782 when Walter Teeling established a small distillery in the Liberties area.

The Vintage Reserve Collection reflects Teeling’s commitment to crafting exceptional, small-batch aged whiskeys that push the boundaries of flavour. The 30-Year-Old is a triumph of that philosophy — a culmination of three decades of maturation, innovation, and heritage in perfect harmony.
