Waterford Ballyroe 1.1 - Single Farm Origin 50%vol. 0,7l
If you really want to know what whiskey is all about, Waterford is the place to be.
The state-of-the-art distillery from the south-east of Ireland is based on one principle: barley is the source of the aromatic diversity of malt whiskey.
The grain, where and how it grows, is therefore the focus of the team led by whiskey visionary Mark Reynier.
Radically transparent, the distillery's single malts show their place of origin - and reflect it in terms of taste.
Because: Waterford produces strictly according to the principles of the terroir and enriches the market with unique bottlings that show the whiskey nation of Ireland from a completely new perspective.
In May 2022, Waterford will be taking curious connoisseurs for the first time to Broomlands and Ballyroe, two contrasting terroirs near Ireland's south-east coast, with three new products.
Simon Neville laid the foundation for Ballyroe: Edition 1.1.
He has been farming for about forty years.
Five miles north of the town of Wexford lies his land - a challenging terroir in drier years, producing luscious fruity and floral notes in the single malt.
