TEELING® Irish Whiskey, the Official Irish Whiskey Partner of Notre Dame fans in the United States, is rolling out a line of limited edition products this football season, set to delight Fighting Irish and college football fans alike.

Two limited edition releases will celebrate the multi-year partnership between the legends of Irish spirit, signifying excellence and innovation, as well as a line of bespoke Irish Spirit stadium jackets. Made in collaboration between the two iconic brands and masterfully conceptualized and crafted by hand by streetwear designer, Kevin Leonel, fans will be able to show off their Fighting Irish spirit through the new merch drop.

Entering the second year of the TEELING Irish Whiskey and Notre Dame Athletics' ongoing partnership — the first spirits partnership for the Fighting Irish — this collaboration underscores the two brands' shared Irish heritage and commitments to progress and excellence.

Available now on TeelingWhiskey.com, the first drop of the TEELING x Notre Dame 'Irish Spirit' Jackets designed by Kevin Leonel feature vintage and bespoke patchwork materials and an Irish tartan pattern, available alongside the Limited Edition Notre Dame Teeling Small Batch bottle which hit shelves in August in time for football season. This November, a second drop will celebrate the legacy of Notre Dame football's 1924 National Championship with jackets designed to mimic whiskey barrels and featuring a sleeve with a commemorative banner celebrating the historic season. The jackets are paired with a commemorative 24-Year-Old Single Malt, the first in the "Phoenix Legends" TEELING x Notre Dame limited edition series. Leonel's expertise in creating custom, fashionable sports gear aligns seamlessly with Notre Dame's objective to offer stylish, unique apparel that taps into alumni passion for showcasing their team pride, and shares TEELING's small batch craftsmanship.

Jim Fraleigh, Deputy Athletics Director, Notre Dame commented: "Just as Notre Dame upholds traditions while embracing the future, TEELING Whiskey revitalizes traditional whiskey-making with the same shared values. With two limited release whiskies and 'Irish Spirit' jackets, this partnership offers fans the opportunity to elevate fans' celebrations with a whiskey that shares both the Fighting Irish passion and TEELING Whiskey's pioneering character."

This November, TEELING Whiskey will release the first in the Notre Dame "Phoenix Legends" commemorative series. This 24-Year-Old Single Malt finished in Rivesaltes Casks honours the 100th Anniversary of Notre Dame's historic first national football championship, led by the legendary Four Horsemen. Limited to just 1,000 bottles, this distinguished whiskey will launch just in time for the November 23rd commemorative game to be played at Yankee Stadium so fans can celebrate the Fighting Irish storied history and the defining moments that have shaped the team's legacy.

Stephen Teeling, Sales & Marketing Director, Teeling  Whiskey commented: "It's been an honour to combine our rich heritage and modern approach to Irish whiskey-making with Notre Dame to create these truly collectable limited release whiskeys and 'Irish Spirit' jackets. Teeling whiskey will continue to enliven the Fighting Irish gameday experience this season and in the seasons to come. We can't wait for fans to enjoy the inaugural release of our Phoenix Legends series – Master Blender, Alex Chasko, is world class when it comes to pushing the boundaries on Irish whiskey, and our 24 Year Old "Phoenix Legends" Single Malt was crafted with Notre Dame fans in mind and is a testament to our shared pioneering spirit."
