We rigorously apply the ancient terroir methodology to today’s verdant landscape of Ireland, home of the world’s finest barley. Now for the first time in single malt whisky – unashamedly inspired by the legendary châteaux of France – we reach the apogee of this radical philosophy.

Our distillery, the technological marvel we call the Facilitator, enables us to create elite whisky – farm by farm, terroir by terroir. State-of-the-art equipment marries with ancient knowledge, locally grown Irish barley with extended fermentations, unhurried distillation & an array of exceptional oak. It has provided a unique library of Single Farm Origins – each expressing its own identity, its own voice.

This unprecedented spectrum of flavours must now reach its crescendo: we have celebrated & explored the singles; now we produce our more immersive concept album. For layered together inthis cerebral fusion of flavours, these component Waterford Whiskies come together, culminating in our ultimate experience: textured, complex & compelling.

The Cuvée, a synthesis of Single Farm Origins, an enigmatic gestalt, a milestone in our journey. The definitive Waterford Whisky. Our LodeStar.

In Ireland's sunny southeast, warmed by the Gulf Stream, the mild, moist air sweeps across the fertile soil to create a green landscape - and the best barley in the world. As barley is the source of the complex flavours of malt whisky, it makes a lot of sense to focus on where and how barley is grown. These flavours are shaped by place, the soil that nourishes its roots and the microclimate in which it matures. 

They have worked with over 100 Irish growers, about forty a year. All of their whiskies use 100% proven Irish grown barley - one farm, one terroir. Every year after harvest, the roads of rural Ireland fill with their growers' tractors carrying Single Farm Origin barley, and around the same time they converge on a special bespoke storage facility, strategically located in the middle of their barley fields.

After several years of maturation in the best of French and American oak, each exhibiting its own nuances, it all comes together as a wonderful chorus of harmonious flavours into a single malt whisky.
