This distinctive Irish malt whiskey is aged for 16 years in a combination of Oloroso Sherry and Bourbon casks, and then matured for several months in Port wine barrels, a unique maturation which imparts distinct notes of juicy fruits, nuts and spice, as well as a hint of ruby redness. Big robust nose of treacle and sweet spice. Full-bodied palate of honey, caramelised fruits and toasted nuts. Long deep finish, distinct berry and dark chocolate notes.

Bushmills 16 year old Single Malt Irish Whiskey

In 1608, in Bushmills, a legend was born. In that year, King James I granted a very particular licence to this small village, just a few miles inland from Northern Ireland’s rugged north coast. The licence gave Bushmills the right to distil whiskey. Today, Bushmills is home to the oldest licenced whiskey distillery in the world.
