Product Information

It has a refined nose, with a light-bodied sweetness, tart apple notes and swathes of banana and smooth vanilla. One of the oldest licensed distilleries in the world, dating back to 1608, Bushmills is the benchmark Irish whisky. Next step is blending the whiskies, so several different malt whiskies are selected then blended together to find the right flavour.

That gentleness also recommends itself to mixing in cocktails in a way that brasher whiskies don’t, but perhaps just a whiskey and ginger – one part Bushmills to three-four parts ginger ale, built in a highball glass filled with ice and finished with a squeeze of lime – is all you need.

So too, with the palate, as the vanilla comes in on a smooth, clean malt arrival, the fruity apple blends with juicier mango and apricot and finishes with a little touch of sherry. On the palate, mellow sweet notes of vanilla, milk chocolate and fresh honeysuckle married with delicate traces of toasted oak.

This one tastes more fruit heavy whereas the previous bottling was more creamy with a fruity topping.
