Whisky Focus - Teeling Whiskey Company Gold Award

Drinks International, the leading global beverage magazine, has awarded the Teeling Whiskey Company two Gold Medals and one Silver Medal at this year’s Drinks International Travel Retail Awards held at TFWA World Exhibition in Cannes.

Gold Medals were awarded to the Teeling Small Batch Irish Whiskey and to the Teeling Whiskey 21 Year Old Single Malt Vintage Reserve. Both were awarded Gold in the Best Drinks Launch of the Year category. The Teeling Whiskey 11 Year Old Irish Single Malt ‘Gathering Bottle’ won a Silver medal in the Best Drinks Launch category at TFWA Cannes 2013. Category trophy winners and the Supreme Travel Retail Champion will be announced at the awards ceremony in Cannes on 22nd October.

This latest success for the Teeling Whiskey Company comes just weeks after it was awarded two Gold Medals at the 2013 Irish Whiskey Masters. Again the Teeling Small Batch and the Teeling 21YO Single Malt Silver Reserve were the stars. The former also received an exceptional rating of 91 from the Beverage Tasting Institute in Chicago and the latter received a 91 rating from Whiskey Magazine.

Jack Teeling, founder of the Teeling Whiskey Company, commented, "We believe in the quality of our whiskeys and it is fantastic to get such positive feedback from International experts. We may be new entrants to the Irish whiskey category but we have a wealth of experience and knowledge in our team. We are committed to providing new and innovative expressions of Irish whiskey with the goal of driving choice within the category."

To build on these Travel Retail Awards the Teeling Whiskey Company is exhibiting for the first time at the world's biggest duty free and travel retail show, TFWA, in Cannes from 20th – 25th October 2013.
