Waterford 2018 Ballybannon Edition 1.1 Single Farm Origin 50% 700ml information

The Waterford 2018 Ballybannon Edition 1.1 Single Farm Origin is a distinctive whiskey that highlights the unique terroir of a single farm. Crafted with barley meticulously grown by the Pender family in County Carlow, near the Barrow River, this exclusive release demonstrates Waterford Distillery's dedication to provenance and quality. The whiskey introduces itself with a compelling peated flavor, achieved by drying the barley over a peat fire using turf from Ballyteige in County Kildare, resulting in a phenol level of 47 ppm. This limited edition whiskey boasts a strong character complemented by a subtle and balanced smoky taste, making it a standout in the realm of Irish whiskey.

As part of Waterford's esteemed Single Farm Origin series, the Ballybannon Edition exemplifies the impact of terroir on a whiskey's flavor. Waterford Distillery is renowned for its commitment to using barley exclusively from single farms for each expression, with the Ballybannon Edition being a prime example. Non-chill filtered and bottled at a robust 50% ABV, this whiskey is ideal for savoring neat, allowing its complexity to shine through.

The Waterford 2018 Ballybannon Edition 1.1 is a rare and exceptional peated Irish whiskey, presenting a flavor profile that masterfully blends smoky notes with fruity undertones of apples and sweet hints of malt and vanilla. The aroma is an inviting mix of soft peat, almonds, freshness, lavender honey, and a touch of beach campfire smoke. On the palate, it delivers a full-bodied experience, reminiscent of buttery, warm apple and almond tart with honeycomb ice cream.

This whiskey is a true testament to Waterford’s unwavering commitment to using 100% Irish ingredients, from the single-farm barley to the particular peat used in the drying process. The result is a unique and rare whiskey, perfect for enthusiasts of peated whiskies and those eager to delve into the intricate flavors of Irish whiskey.
