Teeling has been my favorite distillery since 2021. I've been there 3 times now (I live in California, so it's a bit out of my way) and every time I've been there, I've run into Father Teeling (Dr. John Teeling). Very enjoyable to talk whiskey with the man.
I know nothing about and don't particularly like whiskey but I'm really enjoying this series! They're always informative and entertaining, keep up the great work Darren!
You and Gráinne should come to Tennessee and make episodes about the Tennessee Whiskey Trail. It is a collection of 25 distilleries from one end of the state to the other. It would make a great honeymoon... (Or just a great trip.)
I will have to get a bottle of that, since I love Teeling to begin with, I'm sure it's remarkable. I also love that Grainne is in every video! She is an awesome lady, with a cool sense of humour! Darren, you are the wizard of whiskey!
I really enjoyed the lesson with the actual equipment being used of how it’s made- with a Darren & Grainne flair, not sold anywhere else. Keep it up, guys!
Yah do this every week...... I'm drooling over a whiskey I may never even see here in the wilds of northern British Columbia.....no lumberjack songs please( get enough of that at work) I would like to thank you for expanding my understanding of Irish whiskey and some of the history behind it. Truly wets the appetite for a good dram.....off to the cupboard for one now! Keep up the fun and games, the two of you are special from my point of view. Till next week....
Many years from now when the million plus subscribers are looking back on the "early days" of the channel, I wonder what they will think? 🙂 Wishing you every success from Lewiston, Maine, USA.
Welcome to visit us in Sweden Darren! You'll find out that we have a lot of trees here to make barrels from. And some distillers that fill them with swedish whisky.
Darren talking about Teeling, name a more iconic duo lol But it's so awesome the opportunities and all the places you've been able to go, thanks for showing us around!
Darren, see if you can get a bottle of Whiskey from Spirit of Hven. It's distilled on a small island between Sweden and Denmark. They do vodka and gin too.
What a coincidence -- just picked up a bottle a couple of hours ago! I missed the first WoW release, but the second, the Portuguese Oak, was very good.
Great video , Darren ! Love learning about all the different whiskeys ! I was hoping to see Grainne kick your butt again 😂 ! 😂 ! Oh well maybe next video ! Hope you both have a great weekend !
Teeling single cask carcavelos finished is probably among my top 5 whiskies ever enjoyed. They burned me with their US release of a 17 year white wine finish, though. It was cut into the feints so deep it tasted like mushrooms. I swore them off but might give this one a go on your recommendation.
Hi Darren - - I was delighted to hear you mention your "girlfriend" when referring to a coworker on this channel. I think you might enjoy a video by BuzzFeed called "How I fell in Love With My Coworker".
I have the first two wonders of wood and they’re both incredible. I’ll keep an eye out one for this one. keep up the good work. It’s just getting better.
Nice Video. I have been to the Teeling distillery twice. I agree, they offer good value for the products they make. I still like the small batch and their distillery edition. I also snagged their Rising reserve and a revival series bottle. Strange enough I have not tried the wood series ( I will).
In this channel from the beginning. A worthy and funny self-deprecating addition to the cult of whiskey (whisky) with real information. Here's to all Try offspring.
Having done the distillery tour at Teelings it brings back some good memories. I wonder though, do they still have all the customer graffiti on the walls in the tasting area?
@@ThisTastesLikeWhiskey you had ONE job 🤣 well, two jobs if you include reviewing the whiskey, and 3 jobs if you include making the video about reviewing the whiskey...
I'm very impressed with the interior of the distiller, considering that I've never seen one before. I'm curious, are all distilleries like that in Ireland?
The base spirit for whiskey would have flavours in it as well because it can’t be distilled to as high a percentage as vodka (which is a “neutral” alcohol because all the flavours have been distilled out) However a very high percentage of whiskey’s flavour comes from the barrels, particularly the longer it’s been in there.
What happened? Don't tell me that Ireland has run out of whiskey. Or did Gráinne make you take the pledge? (Or more likely, did some asshat complain about the fight scene in that previous video??)
The editing and delivery is getting better, but the jokes are just as terrible. Never change, Darren and Grainne.

Darren, you old lady nanna cardigan wearing legend!
This has become a series I look forward to every week. Great job.
I know nothing about and don't particularly like whiskey but I'm really enjoying this series! They're always informative and entertaining, keep up the great work Darren!
Another brilliant performance Darren!!! Howdy Griannia, love your pop up performances!!! Big hugs from Kenny in Ohio, USA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Darren, these videos are a new highlight to Fridays.
Keep up the great work.
I love these videos and I don't even like whiskey.
I love your music choices! Eddie Floyd is a great soul singer

So glad I got to see this one before it got pulled for...reasons.
I don’t know how litigious ABBA are…
@@ThisTastesLikeWhiskey They have a song called Money Money Money.....
Great presentation. Love the humor.
I mean, you ask Grainne to edit your video this is what happens.
I will have to get a bottle of that, since I love Teeling to begin with, I'm sure it's remarkable.
I also love that Grainne is in every video! She is an awesome lady, with a cool sense of humour!
Darren, you are the wizard of whiskey!
Memphis music! Always a great choice.
Gotta love a bit of Eddie Floyd.
I was going to make the same comment....vibes from before Darren was born 😅
I really enjoyed the lesson with the actual equipment being used of how it’s made- with a Darren & Grainne flair, not sold anywhere else. Keep it up, guys!
these video's make my week worth the wait for friday's. keep up the good work you two.

Always a hoot, Darren.
Your chances of being surprised by ninja Grainne are low, but never zero.

I've only had the chinkapin and it was great.
Teeling Blackpitts is one of my favorite malts of all time.
Love me some Teeling . Fun and informative video. Love that you keep it fun. Keep them comin!!
Love this series!
Wood I say this video is Wonderful? I wood. 🥃
Unlike Grainne, this one did not sneak up on us 😅
Love the Hitchcockian cameos.... or are they Blumenthalian? ;)
At last, a channel for Irish whiskey, interesting and hilarious.
I had to rewatch the “jump scare”… I thought you spilled your glass! 😂
Enjoying your work! I love a good whiskey, and it's nice to learn more about them.
Love the music choices you have made for your videos. Even the Abba was fun!
Enjoyed your video very much. Keep them coming. I watched while sipping Balvenie 12 year old DoubleWood. I raise my glass to you.
You make me chuckle, and I appreciate that.
Really enjoying this channel! Keep up the great work!
Darren, see if you can get a bottle of Whiskey from Spirit of Hven. It's distilled on a small island between Sweden and Denmark. They do vodka and gin too.
I will keep an eye out for it.
Keep up this content please
Good on Teeling for uping the proof. As a bourbon drinker in the US, I seldom buy lower proof juice. Just a personal preference.
Hello from Detroit, Michigan. Very enjoyable videos. Thanks.
Love that you actually did go and do a show about whiskey ❤
Another great video. I wish these limited edition releases would be more available here in Canada....wood love to try this Whisky.
Great stuff. Thanks.
Glad to see you've recovered from the coma, Darren! Hopefully Teeling Security doesn't pop you right back in again. All the best!
My favourite ❤
What a coincidence -- just picked up a bottle a couple of hours ago! I missed the first WoW release, but the second, the Portuguese Oak, was very good.
Enjoy it! Although if you don’t have Grainne popping up behind you frightening the bejesus out of you, the flavours aren’t quite the same.
Love your take on a good Whiskey.
I love this series! Keep up the great work!
You may have to do one from the bourbon trail here in Kentucky.
lol these videos are just enjoyable (and ya need that especially in these times)❤
Great video , Darren ! Love learning about all the different whiskeys ! I was hoping to see Grainne kick your butt again 😂 ! 😂 ! Oh well maybe next video ! Hope you both have a great weekend !
Thank you.
Does he sound more Irish here than in the Try videos?
I love Teeling.
Another stellar video.
I absolutely love this series! Please continue it! Would you consider doing a bit about Kentucky Gentleman??
Grainne letting out all your secrets again. No wonder you're a drun...expert on whiskey. 😁
I have the Virgin Portugese Oak edition... bought in Georgia USA
Love ur channel 👏👏👏
Well done mate.

That’s a brand I’ve always wanted to try.
Well Darren you see, we Swedes put this thing called 'ekollon' into the ground and... wait for 2-300 years and: There's your cask! Sort of..
You were fairly fast there at the end. I'd pay a nickel to see you race Dermot.
Nice Video. I have been to the Teeling distillery twice. I agree, they offer good value for the products they make. I still like the small batch and their distillery edition. I also snagged their Rising reserve and a revival series bottle. Strange enough I have not tried the wood series ( I will).
Been telling everyone i see about this channel. They tell me to shut up. But I will not!
Lol this was hilarious!
In this channel from the beginning.
A worthy and funny self-deprecating addition to the cult of whiskey (whisky) with real information.
Here's to all Try offspring.
Having done the distillery tour at Teelings it brings back some good memories. I wonder though, do they still have all the customer graffiti on the walls in the tasting area?
I didn’t notice it this time but I wasn’t over that area. But what I remember from the time be for it was that it was all still there.

Run
Is the mint strong?
It’s more notes of menthol, so quite subtle.
Need CC
Please!
Working on it now 😊
@@ThisTastesLikeWhiskey 😀👍🥃
What did you do to Grainne? She was just a blip!
Good channel. Soundtrack is a bit of a limp noodle.
Let's all do our best to spell Gráinne properly, shall we?
Grainy...Granny...Gran Marnier...got it. Thanks for the PSA. 😁
Can I have some, please?
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So is whisky basically vodka until it is aged and gets its flavor from the barrels?
The base spirit for whiskey would have flavours in it as well because it can’t be distilled to as high a percentage as vodka (which is a “neutral” alcohol because all the flavours have been distilled out)
However a very high percentage of whiskey’s flavour comes from the barrels, particularly the longer it’s been in there.
@@ThisTastesLikeWhiskeyI see, so a non aged whisky would still taste like a very mild whisky?
@@stevemcgowen there’d be distinct in their own right, but you can definitely see the through line.
What happened? Don't tell me that Ireland has run out of whiskey. Or did Gráinne make you take the pledge? (Or more likely, did some asshat complain about the fight scene in that previous video??)
@@CCoburn3 nothing so sinister thankfully. Just fell behind on a vid this week but will be back on schedule this week ☺️
@@ThisTastesLikeWhiskey At least Gráinne didn't make you take the pledge. THAT would have been terrible.
JAYSUS potatoe, Darren, that black top isn't hiding much... GOTTDAMMERUNGEN :-O
I enjoy this nonsense.
I COULD NOT HEAR YOU OVER THE SOUNDS OF THE LOUD MAC....achines....
this tastes like shit?
