Mark Reynier Part II- Terroir in whiskey and rum

This is the second chapter of our double-header podcast with Mark Reynier from Waterford Distillery in Ireland and Renegade Rum Distillery in Grenada. In this podcast we delve into the concept of Terroir (soil, microclimate, terrain and latitude etc) and how it has an effect on distilling from both barley and sugar cane. I myself have been a sceptic on this topic in the past but a recent paper commissioned by Waterford has proven that Terroir does change the character of spirit. We discuss the paper, the farms and practices such as biodynamic and organic farming and a lot more. It is not 100% neccesary that you listen to chapter 1 of this podcast first, but we would recommend it! You can find Paper 1 on Terroir at Waterford following the link here: https://waterfordwhisky.com/element/the-whisky-terroir-project-paper-one/

Thanks to Mark Reynier for a great chat! Slainte.
