Teeling X Notre Dame Small Batch Irish Whiskey with Logo Engraving (2025 Release)
Celebrate the spirit of the Fighting Irish with the Teeling Whiskey X Notre Dame Limited Edition 2025 Release, featuring custom logo engravings. This special bottling honors the proud partnership between two iconic institutions: Dublin's own Teeling Whiskey and the legendary University of Notre Dame. For the 2025 release, this collectible bottle is elevated with a personal touch, featuring two exquisitely engraved logos: the "Luck of the Irish" logo and the "Luck of the Irish clover leaf with the ND logo." This is a stunning tribute for fans, alumni, and Irish whiskey lovers alike. Secure this spirited collector's item through our preferred online retail partner, Nestor Liquor.
Inside this beautifully engraved bottle is Teeling's flagship Small Batch Irish Whiskey. This award-winning spirit is crafted from a blend of Irish grain and malt whiskeys, which are initially aged in ex-bourbon barrels. The whiskey then undergoes a secondary maturation in Central American rum casks, imparting a unique and exceptionally smooth character. Bottled at 92 proof and non-chill filtered, this is a modern classic that embodies the unconventional spirit of Dublin.
While the Teeling family's whiskey heritage dates back to 1782, the modern era began when brothers Jack and Stephen Teeling opened the Teeling Whiskey Distillery in 2015—the first new distillery in Dublin in over 125 years. They have since been at the forefront of the Irish whiskey renaissance, combining traditional craftsmanship with a passion for innovation, most notably through their use of unique cask finishes. This partnership with the Notre Dame Fighting Irish is a natural fit, bridging the pride of Ireland with one of America's most storied universities.
Tasting Notes: A Modern Irish Classic
The rum cask finish provides a unique and approachable twist on classic Irish whiskey:
Nose: An inviting bouquet of vanilla and sweet baking spice, with intriguing notes of ripe melon, lemon curd, and a subtle sweetness from the rum cask.
Palate: A wonderfully smooth and creamy mouthfeel. Flavors of sweet vanilla, dried herbs, and cinnamon are beautifully balanced by notes of apple pie, toasted grains, and a distinct rum-like sweetness.
Finish: The finish is long, sweet, and satisfying, with a gentle wood spice that lingers pleasantly on the palate.
