A Toast to Craftsmanship and Character
Two worlds of craftsmanship come together in Teeling Whiskey’s newest release of their award-winning Sommelier Selection Series, now finished in Rioja Red Wine casks.
As the first release in Teeling’s Spanish Series, this limited-edition whiskey honors Rioja — Spain’s most celebrated wine region, known for its rich fruit character and distinctive oak aging.
The result? A whiskey that’s every bit as expressive as the wines that inspired it — layered with vibrant red fruits, soft spice, and a silky tannic finish that lingers long after each sip.

Rioja is at the heart of Spanish winemaking. We are delighted to showcase how its red wine casks can add a new dimension to our Small Batch.

A Whiskey Worth Savoring

Tasting Notes:
- Nose: Strawberry compote, cherry, cinnamon spice, and caramel sweetness

- Finish: Long and luxurious with dry tannins, honey, minerality, and a touch of dark chocolate
Bottled at 46% ABV with no chill filtration, this special edition is a must-try for whiskey enthusiasts and Rioja lovers alike.
