The vineyard inspiration behind their vision begins with their founder, Mark Reynier, who has over four decades of experience in the industry, from owning a Grand Cru vineyard in Burgundy, to being a wine importer and merchant in London; then in 2001 came the resurrection of the iconic Bruichladdich Distillery on Islay, where he established the Botanist Gin, Port Charlotte and Octomore single malts. It wasn’t until he founded Waterford Distillery in 2016, in the South East of Ireland – home to the perfect growing conditions for producing the world’s finest barley – that the principles such as terroir, biodynamics and cuvées could be firmly and rigorously applied to barley and whisky. An idea 40 years in the making.
