Waterford Tinnashrule Edition 1.1 Single Malt Irish Whiskey
Waterford · Waterford Distillery
Waterford's terroir experiment continues to produce compelling evidence that where barley grows matters. Tinnashrule's single-farm origin delivers a whiskey with genuine sense of place — bright, textured, and intellectually satisfying. This is Irish whiskey moving forward with conviction.
Kit Aromas
Nose
Distinctly green and meadowy — freshly cut grass, white peach, and a thread of honey. Beneath the fruit, a subtle earthiness comes through alongside vanilla from first-fill bourbon barrels.
Palate
Creamy and medium-bodied with excellent texture. The barley's origin shines through in mineral undertones, while peach, clove spice, and a cereal malt sweetness create a layered midpalate. A light coconut note drifts through from the cask.
Finish
Medium-long, with lingering green apple freshness and gentle woody spice. The terroir-driven minerality echoes at the close.

Kilbeggan Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey Peated
Kilbeggan
This bottling from one of Ireland's oldest distilleries proves that peat need not be an Islay monopoly. The flame here is Irish turf — softer, earthier, more herbaceous than Scottish peat — and it plays beautifully against the pot still's inherent oiliness. An underrated expression that deserves wider attention.
