Waterford Distillery is continuing its summer expansion across new markets nationwide under new distribution partnerships, with Breakthru Beverage Group being the next major update. The collaboration comes via Waterford’s new importer partner, MORF Brands, a luxury beverage importer based in Texas who is known for its expertise in developing and distributing innovative brands.
Waterford Whisky began its distribution expansion last month with Johnston Brothers and will now become available in additional markets throughout the nation.
Based in the South East of Ireland, home to the world’s finest barley, Waterford Whisky is the world’s largest producer of organic and biodynamic single malts. Waterford has worked with over 100 Irish farms across diverse terroirs, using methodologies that are more common among the world’s greatest vignerons – such as terroir and biodynamics – the distillery has garnered numerous major accolades in just three years. It has established itself as a producer with wide appeal for the new generation of single malt drinkers who value authenticity and provenance.
