🌟 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:

Cadenhead’s Fettercairn 17 Year Old Chairman’s Stock Cask Strength (54.8% abv)
$129.99Finished in a Granada rum cask since 2019, this bottling from Fettercairn distillery features notes of barbecued bananas, pineapple upside down cake and lemon zest.
Fettercairn is a highland distillery sat by the Cairngorm Mountatins.
Given the equipment and production style, it’s easy to see why a firm, relatively heavy, nutty style whisky is created. Furthermore, between 1995 & 2009, the condensers were made of stainless steel, adding a slightly burnt, pot ale character to the new make. However, a cooling ring at the top of the swan neck, spraying cold water down the still sides, helps reflux and guides the spirit towards a lighter profile.
Nose:
Barbecued bananas, mineral notes, pampas grass, sherbert lemons.Flavour:
Coastal notes, miso, chalk.Finish:
Pineapple upside down cake, gooseberries, lemon zest. -
Cadenhead’s Glenturret 13 Year Old Chairman’s Stock Cask Strength (51.5% abv)

Lochlea Sowing Edition 3rd Crop (46% abv)
$84.99Original price was: $84.99.$61.99Current price is: $61.99.Our limited edition seasonal whiskies have been a great way for us to showcase our spirit style in a variety of different casks to reflect the farming calendar. Our Third Crop will be the last, completing the trilogy.
Sowing Edition embodies springtime on Lochlea Farm when we sow the fields with barley seed. The days start to stretch, the daffodils pop out to say hello, and we begin another year of growing barley for our single malt whisky.
Like the First and Second Crops, Sowing Edition Third Crop has been matured in 100% first-fill Bourbon barrels. We’ve found over the years that our spirit works particularly well in this type of cask, as the apple notes in our new make complement the vanilla flavours typically found in Bourbon barrels.
This whisky opens with flavours of almonds and rose petals on the nose, developing into a vibrant burst of apple blossom underpinned with white pepper and crisp pear on the palate. The finish is gentle, with notes of warm straw and freshly-cut grass.
Sowing Edition (Third Crop) is non-chill filtered with no added colouring.
