The Waterford Distillery is the brainchild of Mark Reynier, the man who revived the Bruichladdich Distillery on Islay, Scotland, at the beginning of this century. Waterford is located on Ireland's south coast. In 2016 the first new make spirit came out of the boilers there. What makes the Waterford project special is that it is based on the idea of 'terroir', the idea that you can taste the soil on which the crop used, barley in this case, grew. Waterford sources its barley from 89 farms in 19 different regions of Ireland and bottles their single malt whisky so to say per farm. The first Waterford bottlings were released in 2020.
