Whisky.com reviews the Waterford Bannow Island Edition 1.1. The Irish Waterford distillery has an approach to whisky production that is strongly oriented towards wine production. Only barley harvested in one particular place is used to capture the ‘terroir’ of the region. The barley for this bottling comes from a single farm on Bannow Island on the south-east coast of Ireland, where the harsh climate with salty Atlantic winds and sandy soils create a challenging terroir. In order to lose as little of the ‘terroir’ as possible, Waterford whisky is only distilled twice, unlike other Irish whiskeys. Aging takes place in first-filled bourbon casks (35%), fresh American white oak casks (20%) as well as French wine (25%) and sweet wine casks (20%).
