Waterford Gaia: Edition 1.1 The Arcadian Series is a unique organic Irish single malt whiskey, crafted exclusively from 100% organic barley grown on seven diverse Irish farms. This whiskey is the first of its kind to be produced by the Waterford Distillery, which is renowned for its concept of Terroir and its belief that barley, the main ingredient of Irish whiskey, shapes the distinctive flavor profile of their offerings.
Gaia 1.1 was distilled in 2016 and has been matured in a harmonious blend of ex-bourbon, virgin American oak, French oak, and Vin Doux Naturel wine casks. This maturation process results in a complex and delightful whiskey with a fruity, spicy character. It is bottled at 50% ABV, without any added coloring, chill-filtration, or additives.
This whiskey is part of Waterford's Arcadian Series, which celebrates radical growers and alternative philosophies, including heritage grains and unusual growing methods. The first bottling of this series, Gaia 1.1, is a special edition and holds the distinction of being the first Irish whiskey to be certified organic by the Organic Trust.
The whiskey is distilled from organic Irish barley grown by a small, dedicated group of organic farmers. Each individual farm that supplies the distillery will feature a distinct whiskey that bears its name. Gaia 1.1 is distilled from organic Irish barley and is bottled exclusively for the German market. This whiskey exemplifies the Single Farm Origin Bottlings concept that Waterford Distillery has developed to emphasize the importance of barley origin and the impact of terroir on the final product.
