Waterford Single Farm Origin Ballymorgan Edition 1.1 The Waterford distillery was originally built as a state-of-the-art brewing Guinness facility by Diageo in 2003. It was purchased and transformed into a distillery by Mark Reynier in 2014. The former proprietor as Bruichladdich, Reynier was inspired to look to Ireland for his next project following the testimony from the Islay distilleries Duncan McGillvray that the barley from across the Irish sea was the best he had ever seen. As with Bruichladdich, the Waterford distillery is terroir-focussed, sourcing all of its barley requirement from 46 local farms. The distillery operates a column still, and two pot stills procured from the closed Inverleven distillery in Scotland. The first spirt ran from them in January 2016, and its first publicly available bottlings were produced in 2020. This is one of the distillery's inaugural 2020 single malt releases. It was distilled in week 2016, using barley grown by Robert Milne on one of Irelands premier malting barley terroirs at the famous Clonroche Series in Co. Wexford Waterford Single Farm Origin - Sheestown Edition 1.1 - Sheestown 1.1 is a single farm origin Irish whiskey from Waterford, made with barley grown just outside of the historic town of Kilkenny. Matured in a combination of French and American oak casks.
