Waterford Heritage Goldthorpe Single Malt Irish Whisky | 700ML Tasting Notes

Nose: Wonderfully barley-forward with subtle, zesty fruits and light leafy notes. Theres an excellent breadiness. Husks, notes of warm porridge, honey and some pot ale, but also tingly hints of oranges, cured lemons and tart berries.

Palate: Thick, oily and mouth-coating. A pinch of pepper alongside warm apple sauce, ripe bananas and gingerbread. More bread. Slightly dry.

Finish: Medium length. Root-y, earthy and grainy pears. Also slightly herbacious. Maybe even some fennel.

Reynier had previously revived the Islay distillery Bruichladdich in 2002, together with independent bottler Murray McDavid.
