Commenting on
the latest wave of International accolades, Jack Teeling, founder of The Teeling

widely recognised at the biggest competitions in the whiskey world, especially
at such an early stage in the development of Teeling Whiskey. With construction
about to get underway at our new distillery in Dublin, we hope to be able to
build on these awards and continue to provide high quality and unique
expressions to Irish whiskey drinkers around the world.“
In January
2014, The Teeling Whiskey Company announced a €10 million investment in a new
