🌟 Celebrate a Legacy with a Historical Collection 🌟
The story of the Waterford Distillery is one of vision, innovation, and a relentless pursuit of quality. Founded in 2014 by Mark Reynier, a pioneer in the whisky industry and former owner of the renowned Bruichladdich Distillery in Scotland, Waterford set out to revolutionize Irish whiskey by embracing the concept of terroir—the idea that a whiskey’s flavor is deeply influenced by the place where its ingredients are grown.
Located on Ireland’s picturesque southeast coast, in the historic city of Waterford, the distillery was housed in a state-of-the-art facility that had previously been a Guinness brewery. Mark Reynier transformed the site into one of the most advanced distilleries in the world, combining traditional craftsmanship with cutting-edge technology. Waterford’s mission was simple yet ambitious: to prove that the origin of the barley could create distinctive, farm-specific flavors in whiskey.
Despite its critical acclaim and groundbreaking approach, Waterford Distillery recently closed its doors, making its whiskies a rare and valuable part of Irish whiskey history.
Now, you have the chance to own and enjoy two remarkable single malts from this iconic distillery:
