- Finish: Long and smooth, with white chocolate, orchard fruit, and honey, followed by soft tannins.
The whiskey is bottled at 46% alcohol by volume (ABV).

Teeling’s new Rising Reserve isn’t available just anywhere. It’s limited to 6,000 bottles, sold via Teeling Distillery, The Celtic Whiskey Shop, and select specialist retailers. The price per bottle is €225.

Screen grab of the YouTube channel where the video was blocked due to Pernod Ricard lobbying.

- Let's keep this factually correct. Pernod Ricard DID NOT release a Chinese whisky. Their first output from The Chuan (the name of the distillery in Sichuan, China) wasn't fit for bottling. What they actually bottled was imported Scotch whisky. This is why the product is called "PURE MALT" and not "Chinese Whisky" - because Pure Malt is not a regulated term - this is not a secret. This was exposed about a week after they released it. There were even videos about their own staff on site admitting it was made from imported whisky - which Pernod Ricard got the lawyers onto to get the video pulled. I've got a copy if you want it.Yvonne09-10-2025
