Teeling Irish Whiskey recently launched a collaboration with Notre Dame Athletics celebrating the brands’ shared Irish spirit legacy. The partnership will see the launch of limited-edition whiskeys and exclusive stadium jackets designed by celebrity streetwear designer, Kevin Leonel.
Teeling is the Official Irish Whiskey Partner of Notre Dame fans in the USA, and the new collaboration is set to bring Fighting Irish fans and Irish whiskey fans together.
The Limited Teeling x Notre Dame Releases
The first of two limited-edition whiskeys, Notre Dame Teeling Small Batch, hit shelves in August of this year, just in time for the start of the football season.
The second launch is planned for November, when a 24 Year Old Irish single malt whiskey is set to debut as part of the “Phoenix Legends” Teeling x Notre Dame limited edition series. The whiskey, finished in Riversaltes casks, will launch on November 23rd, coinciding with the commemorative game set to be played at Yankees Stadium. Just 1,000 bottles will be made available.
