Terroir-driven Irish whisky producer Waterford Distillery has bottled its definitive, flagship single malt – The Cuvée – due to be released worldwide this autumn.
Inspired by Bordeaux’s greatest chateaux, Waterford Distillery has applied the same methodology to create the ultimate in whisky flavour complexity, a genuine innovation for the spirits industry, called The Cuvée.
25 totally unique Waterford Single Farm Origin whiskies, drawn from distinct terroirs of Southern Ireland, have been married together to create a layered, profound and compelling taste experience.
It has notes of red apples, breadcrust, green foliage, lavender, digestive biscuits, oranges, fresh mint, coffee cake, with a distinctly oily, textured palate delivering grapefruit, lemon zest, dark chocolate, cherries, granola and marmalade with an extraordinary length of flavour.

Elegant spice, treacle toffee, rich sherry oak – with an endlessly complex finish. Matured exclusively in hand-selected sherry casks for a character-building quarter-century. Made in the distillery’s traditional way, with the slowest distillation in Scotland and no peat used in the process.
Nose: Big notes of sherry-soaked fruit up front – raisins, figs and oranges. This is followed by wafts of toasted almonds and classic notes of old leather.
Palate: Vanilla and dark chocolate open up the palate. Sherry comes through yet again, but this time in the shape of rich, well spiced fruit cake. Hints of orange and oak round it off.
Finish: The finish lasts with notes of red fruits and cracked black pepper.
A Two Brewers Classic, juxtaposing humble grains and noble oak, worthy of considered contemplation. A harmonious tandem, enrobed in delicious complexities.
Simple in nature, if not in construction, this bottling showcases all that barley and oak have to offer, coaxed out day by day and year by year. Indulgent and inviting, an expression charged with crème caramel and custard, made more interesting by the intricacies that surround.
From the landmark distillery Glen Keith ,which was the first to be built in Speyside region in the 20th century. The tall copper stills used to distill this twenty five year old Whisky imparts distinctively Speyside flavours.
On the nose there is a syrupy sweetness; akin to toffee apples and spiced ginger marmalade. This is followed by tangy gooseberry jam and vanilla custard on the palate. The finish is long, smooth and sweet.

Indulge in the rich and layered complexity of High West Cask Collection Oloroso Sherry Barrel Finished Blend of Straight Whiskeys. This limited-edition release marries carefully selected straight whiskeys, further refined through aging in Oloroso Sherry casks. The result is a bold, sophisticated spirit that beautifully balances deep fruitiness with warm spice and oak.
Finished in a Granada rum cask since 2019, this bottling from Fettercairn distillery features notes of barbecued bananas, pineapple upside down cake and lemon zest.
Fettercairn is a highland distillery sat by the Cairngorm Mountatins.
Given the equipment and production style, it’s easy to see why a firm, relatively heavy, nutty style whisky is created. Furthermore, between 1995 & 2009, the condensers were made of stainless steel, adding a slightly burnt, pot ale character to the new make. However, a cooling ring at the top of the swan neck, spraying cold water down the still sides, helps reflux and guides the spirit towards a lighter profile.
Nose:
Barbecued bananas, mineral notes, pampas grass, sherbert lemons.
Flavour:
Coastal notes, miso, chalk.
Finish:
Pineapple upside down cake, gooseberries, lemon zest.
