2021 Waterford Voyages Extraordinaires Micro Cuvee

Crafted from a blend of barley sourced from various farms in Ireland, the Micro Cuvee is a testament to the diversity of Irish whiskey. The barley was harvested in 2018, distilled in the same year, and matured for 3 years, 5 months, and 27 days before being bottled in August 2021.

The Micro Cuvee is a complex and intriguing whisky that rewards exploration. Its peach color, with intense oils and legs that evoke the ZZ Top lyric, is a testament to the quality of the spirit. The nose is a captivating blend of aromas, with notes of berry compote, barley sugar, wet fresh cut grass, barnyard, honey wax, peppercorns, rhubarb and custard sweets, fresh green foliage, brown banana, vanilla pods, fresh soil, apple tart, and cream. The palate is a symphony of flavors, with poached pears, Crème Brûlée, malted biscuits, ginger, roasted almonds, a spice bomb in the middle, maple syrup, cinnamon, and fudge cake dancing across your taste buds. The finish is a long and lingering spice that dries and takes you on a voyage of flavor.

With only 1000 bottles released, the 2021 Waterford Voyages Extraordinaires Micro Cuvee is a highly sought-after collector’s item.
