Waterford Ratheadon Edition 1.1 Single Malt Irish Whisky, 70cl, 50% ABV
Waterford Ratheadon (Edition 1.1) was distilled in 2016 exclusively from Irina barley harvested from Ratheadon, Co. Carlow on the Farm of Stephen & Andrew McDonnella. Released from the much anticipated Waterford Distillery. Introducing the concept of Terroir to Irish whisky the team in Waterford are developing the thought that the main ingredient of Irish Whisky, the Barley, shapes the distinctive flavour profile of their whiskey.
Using 100% demonstrably Irish-grown barley, widely considered to be the world’s finest, the new Single Farm Origin series is an uber-provenance range of limited edition natural whiskies that explore Irish terroir one farm, once place, at a time. They are expressions of precision and rarity. Following a strict methodology that originates in the greatest vineyards of France, each farm’s crop is kept separate from field to barrel.
Using a mash filter instead of a mash tun, super-long 120-hour fermentations, and exceptionally slow distillations, they produce the most natural and respectful expressions of barley possible.
