Teeling Whiskey sees two of its brands win world honours

Two of the Teeling Whiskey Company brands were honoured with the accolade of the “World’s Best” at the 2014 World Whiskies Awards held in London yesterday.

The Teeling Single Grain Irish Whiskey was awarded the title of “World’s Best Grain Whiskey” and the Teeling 21-year-old Single Malt Silver Reserve was awarded the title of “World’s Best Irish Single Malt Whiskey”.

The World Whiskies Awards, run by Whiskey Magazine, saw more than 300 whiskies put through their paces with three rounds of rigorous tastings, to win the coveted title of the “World's Best”.

Jack Teeling, founder of the Teeling Whiskey Company, said: "We are very proud of the whiskeys we have launched over the last two years and we are humbled to receive such recognition at one of the biggest awards in the whiskey world.

"These awards give us confidence to continue to launch innovative expressions of Irish whiskey driving choice within the Irish whiskey category."
