Product description

Product description
The Irish Waterford distillery has an approach to whisky production that is very much based on winemaking. They only use barley that has been harvested in a particular place, in order to capture the 'terroir' of the region. The barley for this bottling comes from the Hook Head farm, where the barley grows on clay soils and is characterised by an extremely maritime terroir including salty storms and sea breezes. In order to lose as little of the 'terroir' as possible, Waterford Whisky is only distilled twice, unlike other Irish whiskeys. Maturation takes place in first-fill bourbon casks as well as fresh American and French oak barrels and sweet wine casks.

The Distillery: Waterford

Waterford
Waterford
Waterford
The Waterford Distillery was created in 2015 by converting a former Guinness Brewery in Waterford, in the very south of Ireland. The distillery's founder Mark Reynier was formerly the mastermind behind the rebuilding of Islay Distillery Bruichladdich. The former Wine merchant approaches Whisky (spelled without an 'e', even if they come frome Ireland) production in a similar way to Wine production: He wants to capture the terroir, i.e. the origin-specific character of the grain, with his Whiskies. read more
