Waterford Distillery Tasting: IWS Online Event
Group 1: SOLD OUT Tuesday 28th July at 6:00pm
We are delighted to announce our July IWS Online tasting with Waterford Distillery featuring some of their Terroir expressions and some special samples selected especially for the Society to enjoy. The Online event for the first group will start on Tuesday the 28th of July at 6.00pm and will be presented by the Head distiller Ned Gahan.
The event will be divided into two groups to provide an environment for interaction and the possibility to discuss among the participants the influences of Terroir on the tasted Waterford Whisky expressions.
Each member can book a place on only one group.
Waterford Distillery was set up in 2015 in heart of Waterford city and quickly became synonymous for their Terroir approach to whisky, which explores taste of Ireland "one farm, one place, at the time".
We're delighted our members will get a chance to sample and compare new makes from two different farms who sowed Olympus variety of barley in 2017. This will be followed by an exciting tasting of new Bannow Island 1.1 release and upcoming, further matured and with selected cask profile Bannow Island 1.2. The grand finale will be a surprise expression specially prepared by Ned for us to enjoy on the night.
The event will be hosted on on Zoom conference software. Please make sure you have the software downloaded and installed in advance.
