Greg Dillon Notes
Nose:
with time too. Quite sweet and mellow, a bit earthy in places.
Palate:
Sweet, punchy, juicy, absolutely fantastic palate; those
exotic fruits come to the fore brilliantly, with a rounded spiciness that wraps it all together to create a stunning whiskey. Seriously enjoyable stuff.
Finish:
Long finish, balanced between spice and sweetness, alternating seemingly with each sip and swallow, vibrant, alive.
Overall:
A really stunning whiskey, well played Team Teeling, I think this is my favourite from the four Revival releases.
Michael Foggarty Notes
Nose:
Palate:
The fruits deliver and come through along with lots of citrus, some spice and vanilla toward the end.
Finish:
Overall:
The whiskey is very fruity and I’m assuming that is coming from the Muscat which has left a mark here.
Another great release from Teeling.
