Our Whiskies
Welcome to the Land of the Brave! Mont-Saint-Jean Farm, in the heart of the Waterloo battlefield, is very proud to present you its whiskies produced from the brewing of Waterloo beers.
The first barrels of Scotch whisky arrived on the farm in 1815, during the Battle of Waterloo. The whisky was mostly reserved for the officers and helped them fight off the pain of the injuries sustained on this battlefield. Today, after three years of distilling on the basis of the recipe for our Waterloo beers, we can finally present our three Waterloo Whiskies: ‘The Surgeon’, ‘The Nurse’ and ‘The Brancardier’.
Our two Single Casks, The Surgeon & The Nurse, are boyh from a single Cask and will not exceed 300 bottles. All are clearly numbered.
Don’t hesitate, call us to book your visit of the brewery, the distillery and to learn their secrets. You will discover our brewing vats and our superb still, before entering our cellars where the angels are waiting to reveal a magical show…

The Brancardier
2021
Sourced directly from our pear orchards, the intense flavour of pear blends with the exotic notes of green banana and pineapple. Add a touch of caramelised hazelnuts, fresh vanilla tobacco and butterscotch. Lovely finish, pleasant and creamy.
ABV : 40%
2020
Waterloo Single Grain is without a doubt the ideal introduction to the world of Belgian whisky. Aromas of caramel and vanilla complement subtle and spicy notes. You can even discern a bouquet of spring flowers. The smooth mouthfeel is characterised by a very round combination of vanilla sugar balanced by spicy and woody flavours, resulting from a blend with other American barrels made from white oak (Quercus alba). The finish is characterised by a long aftertaste of tea leaves.
ABV : 46%
The Nurse
‘The Nurse’ refers to the vital role played by Allied and Belgian women (often from the village) who assisted the medical corps throughout the battle at Mont-Saint-Jean Farm.
Type : Single Cask Grain
Wash : Waterloo Récolte
Barrel (history) : Oak (Highlands Scotch Whisky)
2021
Imagine a smoky blend of leather and spice mixed with salty, peppery and malty flavours. All with a final touch of toasted bread and macadamia nuts.
ABV : 42%
2020
This Waterloo Single Cask Grain whisky is surely a pleasant surprise! Using Waterloo Récolte as a basis for distillation, we have succeeded in extracting all aromas from the beer, but without losing anything … Pear and grass aromas linger behind the sweet fragrance of vanilla, together with notes of red pepper and grains. Connoisseurs will also appreciate the subtle notes of dark chocolate.
ABV : 42%
The Surgeon
Type : Single Cask Malt
Wash : Waterloo Triple Blond
Barrel (history) : Oak (Highlands Scotch Whisky)
2021
Elegantly fruity! Yellow melon, peach and pear contrast with almond and walnut flavours; all balanced by a touch of spice, with a soft and creamy finish
ABV : 54%
2020
This Waterloo Single Cask Malt is distilled from our Waterloo Triple Blond. The Belgian barley, fermented with our special yeast, brings extraordinary spicy notes. After distillation, the spirit ages for over three years in oak barrels from the Highlands of Scotland. This whisky is characterised by sweet vanilla aromas blended with oak, followed by notes of spices and juniper. The long aftertaste of barley is reminiscent of Waterloo Triple.
ABV : 46%
