Waterford – Irish Single Malt The Cuvée (50%)

This is Waterford Irish Single Malt The Cuvée, bottled at 50%. It is made at Waterford, in the sunny south east of Ireland, where air warmed by the Gulf Stream meets damp air. The brand spells whisky without the e usual in Ireland, reflecting its view that terroir matters more than national borders. It puts its focus on where and how the barley is grown, so that the soil and the microclimate shape the flavours.
