Waterford Heritage Goldthorpe Single Malt Irish Whiskey
In stock
Goldthorpe barley is a heritage crop that traces its origins back to 1889 in Yorkshire, England. It was introduced into Ireland in the early 1900’s and is tall-strawed, wide-eared barley variety. It has not been used in the distillation for whiskey in over a hundred years.
This Goldthorpe variety was harvested in 2019 and distilled in 2000, and now Waterford Whisky have released the resulting whiskey as part of its Heritage barley series.

Tasting Notes
Nose
Wonderfully barley-forward with subtle, zesty fruits and light leafy notes. There’s 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.
