Waterford Gaia: Edition 1.1 United States 50% 750ml information

The Waterford Gaia: Edition 1.1, released in 2020, is a remarkable expression from Waterford Distillery in Ireland. This unique whisky has a profound connection to the land and the community of organic farmers who cultivate its ingredients. Distilled in 2016 and bottled with a robust 50% ABV, this limited edition release comprises only 6000 bottles. Exclusively available in the South African market, the Gaia 1.1 is crafted from organic Irish barley grown by dedicated farmers on two specific farms: Rathclough in Tipperary and Ratheadon in Co. Carlow. Each farm imparts its distinctive terroir to the whisky, contributing to its rich and complex character. As the inaugural release in Waterford Distillery's Arcadian Series, the Gaia 1.1 celebrates nonconformist farming practices and alternative philosophies. This whisky is certified organic by the Organic Trust and matured in a diverse array of premium oak casks, including first-fill US oak, virgin US oak, premium French oak, and Vin Doux Naturel sweet fortified wine casks. Importantly, it is free from coloring, chill-filtration, and any additives, ensuring a pure and authentic whisky experience. The story of the land where the barley is grown adds an intriguing dimension to this whisky. Richard Raftice farms the Rathclough soil in Tipperary, which consists of shingle to clay-rich marl originating from the Ordovician shale bedrock. Meanwhile, Stephen and Andrew McDonnell farm the Ratheadon land in Co. Carlow, characterized by well-drained, quick-drying sandy loams derived from limestone, ideal for early spring sowing and a long barley growing season. In essence, the Waterford Gaia: Edition 1.1 is a unique celebration of the synergy between the land, the farmers, and the whisky. Matured in premium oak casks, it stands as a testament to the innovative spirit of Waterford Distillery and its commitment to organic farming and nonconformist whisky production.
