Waterford Peated - Ballybannon 1.1
This peated expression from Ireland's Waterford distillery is a single malt whiskey distilled from barley grown at Ballybannon farm. The farm where the barley is grown sits near a peat bog, and abiding by the age old saying of 'if it grows together, it goes together', the folks at Waterford found this Irish barley and peat combination worked brilliantly. The barley used here is kilned to 47ppm, but doesn't overpower the core character of this Irish whiskey.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Earthy smoke, with creamy grain, and a touch of lemon zest.
Palate
Shortbread and toasted grain mingle with the peat, along with cinder toffee, oaky vanilla, and peppery spice.
Finish
Damp ashes and milk chocolate.
