Waterford Hook Head 1.1, Irish Single Malt Whisky

A brand new Waterford Single Farm Origin 1.1 release, from Hook Head.

Waterford Hook Head 1.1 is the first release from the 2015 Hook Head farm harvest, with barley grown in extreme maritime conditions, creating a unique profile.

Made entirely from Irish Propino malted barley which has been grown by Martin Foley, the whisky has been aged for over 3 years and 8 months in multiple cask types including first-fill, virgin US and French Oak.

Long fermentation and slow double distillation creates and impactful flavour, and the texture is maximised by no chill filtration or additional colouring.

Official tasting notes:
A rich texture with notes of earthy maltiness, salted caramel, citrus peel, clove, white pepper, ginger biscuits and a slight touch of salted popcorn with a long and oily finish.
