Waterford Distillery

Ireland`s Waterford Distillery was founded back in 2015 by Mark Reynier, formerly the co-owner of Bruichladdich. Interestingly, the distillery is actually a converted brewery which had previously produced that well-known Irish stout, Guinness. These days, whiskey is the drink of choice being made at Waterford, with a focus on local barley, showing that terroir most definitely has an impact on the final spirit. Reynier and his team work with a host of local farms to create Single Farm Origin single malt whiskeys, which debuted in 2020. Not only that, Waterford has also produced the first Irish whiskey that has been certified as organic by the Organic Trust – Waterford Arcadian Gaia!
