Description
In a nutshell:
Spice-forward and fruity Irish whisky, showcasing the unique character of its single-farm origin.
The lowdown:
This is a single malt Irish whisky from Waterford's Single Farm Origin series. It's made exclusively with barley grown on the Grattansbrook farm in County Kildare. It's aged in a mix of first-fill US oak, premium French oak, and Vin Doux Naturel (sweet wine) casks, which add layer upon layer of complexity. Grattansbrook 1.1 is all about showcasing terroir how the specific environment where the barley is grown influences the whiskys flavour. Its part of Waterfords mission to prove that even within a single type of whisky, the origin of the barley can create wildly diverse and delicious expressions.
Tasting Note:
Nose - Opens with orchard fruits (pear, baked apple) alongside sultanas and a hint of fresh-baked bread. Subtle vanilla and citrus notes emerge.
Palate - Creamy with a pleasing spice kick of cinnamon and ginger. Honey sweetness builds with toasted nuts, dried fruit, and a touch of citrus zest.
Finish - Medium-length, with a satisfying warmth of pepper spice and lingering orchard fruit sweetness.
The Producer:
Waterford Whisky, founded by Mark Reynier, explores terroir's impact on whisky by championing a barley-forward approach. Collaborating with Irish farmers, they select barley from unique soils and microclimates, distilling each harvest separately to create 'Single Farm Origin' whiskies. These expressions highlight terroir-driven flavour variations. They also produce complex cuvées by blending these whiskies. Committed to organic and biodynamic farming, they believe it yields the most flavourful barley. Transparency is key: each bottle features a TÉIREOIR code, tracing the whisky's journey from grain to glass.
