Released in 2020, this exceptional whisky is a celebration of the single origin distillations from the year 2016.

The Waterford Pilgrimage 1st Cuvee Direct Only was exclusively available during the Waterford Distillery open day on April 25, 2020, for those fortunate enough to make the "pilgrimage" to the distillery. Presented in a 700ml bottle, this whisky is a true testament to the artistry of whisky-making and the unique terroir of Irish farms.
