Elevate your Easter weekend with a Teeling Whiskey and Chocolate pairing!
Looking for the perfect treat this Easter weekend? We’ve got you covered with our Top Teeling Tips on how to pair our award-winning Teeling Whiskeys with your favourite chocolates, as well as our special Teeling Chocolate Orange cocktail to toast.
3 Whiskey & Chocolate Pairing Ideas:
Whiskey and Chocolate are the perfect combo, so why not try out a variety of styles with your favourite Teeling Whiskey of choice?
For our pairing, we usually partner with local producer The Proper Chocolate Company. However, you can select something similar in your local store!
1. Teeling Small Batch – Dark Chocolate (70-75%) with Sea Salt flavourings.
A good quality dark chocolate matches perfectly with the malt characteristic of our Small Batch. The addition of sea salt brings an explosion of flavour when combined with the tropical fruit and spice elements naturally present in the Small Batch due to its rum maturation.
2. Teeling Single Grain – Dark Chocolate (70%) with toasted coconut and/or fruits and/or caramel notes.
A lighter chocolate pairs exceptionally well with our Single Grain. Light fruits and sweet tones allow the fresh fruit flavours of the Cabernet Sauvignon casks to shine. Teeling Single Grain shows a distinctive silky and smooth texture when combined with dark chocolate containing toasted coconut.
3. Teeling Single Malt – Dark Chocolate (75-80%) with ripe/red fruit and dark spices.
The dark chocolate provides a platform for the fresh summer fruits and spiced tones of the Single Malt to be displayed front and centre, while prolonging a long and warm finish.
