Teeling: The First Ever Dublin Distillery

By Riza Maria

July 12, 2022


“With one eye on the past, but looking to the future, we’re the new generation of Dublin distillers. We approach our craft with a respect for generations passed but with the confidence to forge the next chapter of Irish, Dublin and Teeling Whiskey” – Stephen Teeling, Whiskey Pioneer

 

Breaking Norms Since 1782

The Teeling brand has been breaking norms and exceeding expectations for generations now. Not just in the craft of making whiskey, but in business as well. In 1782, Walter Teeling put up a small craft distillery on Marrowbone Lane in the industrial heart of Dublin City.

Fast forward to 2012, after generations of genius, Stephen and Jack Teeling opened a new Teeling distillery from where their family’s original one stood.

But you know how special this is? It’s the first ever Dublin distillery for over 125 years! Because of prohibition and circumstances over the years, Dublin distilleries failed to adapt to the ever-changing whiskey world.. Until now.

 

Bringing Dublin Back to the Map

Over the years, Teeling Whiskey has been known for really innovating the way Irish Whiskey is made.

They take the traditional core identity of Irish Whiskey but experiment with some of the newer techniques of what’s being done worldwide.

This includes trying out different maturation casks, grains, and distillation methods that are considered to be unconventional in Irish Whiskey.

With over 200+ international awards and counting, Dublin is now back in the game. All thanks to Teeling.
