Process & Profile
Bushmills Irish Whiskey is a masterpiece of traditional Irish distilling. Each batch is triple distilled from unpeated malted barley, ensuring smoothness and richness. The whiskey is then aged in a combination of bourbon barrels and oloroso sherry casks, lending it a unique depth of flavor. The commitment to quality and history is underscored by the Bushmills Distillery's legacy, which dates back to 1608, earning it the status of the world's oldest licensed whiskey distillery.
This mini-pack focuses on the Bushmills Black Bush blend—a harmonious combination of 80% single malt and 20% grain whiskey—aged primarily in oloroso sherry casks. The result is a rich and smooth whiskey with a 40% ABV.
