平時見的Waterford由獨立田的大麥去釀造及蒸餾
而Cuvée就由佢地的25塊田的大麥mix埋去造,

上Waterford官網可以睇到哂25塊田的名, 當中亦當然包括之前出品過的田 (e.g. Sheestown, Bannow Island 等等)

Official Tasting note for reference:

Nose:
Red apples, fresh dry soil, breadcrust, green foliage, lavender, digestive biscuits, oranges, barmbrack, over ripe banana skin, a summer flower bed, fresh mint, coffee cake.

Taste:
Clove sweets, white pepper, oily, grapefruit, lemon zest, dark chocolate, dry toast, cherries, granola bar, dried herbs, aniseed, green olives, 3 peel marmalade.

Finish:
Pepper up front with oily spiciness that softens, starts dry but then gets mouth-watering & lingers where I close my eyes and relax!
