Waterford Koffi – A Whisky of Depth, Terroir, and Character
Waterford Koffi, from Waterford Distillery’s renowned Cuvée series, is a bold exploration of terroir. This whisky captures the authentic taste of Ireland’s diverse landscapes. Through meticulous craftsmanship, Waterford has distilled a showcase of terroir-derived flavors, sourced from over a hundred Single Farm Origins. Each origin reflects the unique interaction of soil and microclimate, creating a true “taste of a place.” In Koffi, 24 of these origins are layered together, blending harmoniously. Each single-farm origin distillation, crafted from one harvest, gives Koffi a depth unlike any other.
After six years of aging in a range of French and American oak, Waterford Koffi emerges with balance and harmony. It is expressive, profound, and complex – a single malt where the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
