Waterford Peated Lacken 1.1 Whiskey

Waterford Peated Lacken 1.1 is a single malt Irish whiskey that showcases Waterford Distillery's focus on terroir. It is distilled from barley grown on a single farm, Lacken in County Wexford, which gives the release its name, and the barley is peated with real Irish peat for a bold, smoky character.

Maturation draws on a broad range of casks, including ex-bourbon, new oak, French oak, port and Marsala wood, and the whiskey is bottled at 50% ABV. The nose is fresh and high-toned, with smoke, brine, oyster shells, barley sugar, soft apples and pear skins. The palate is full-bodied and oily, bringing driftwood, campfire and creosote alongside juicy white peach and apple sauce, before a finish of tar, green tea and cigar tobacco.
