Tasting notes

With a recipe that dates back before Prohibition, there is no better whiskey for making a classic, pre-Prohibition cocktail than Bushmills Original. Combining a pure single malt whiskey and a lighter grain whiskey, you’ll notice its rich, smooth warming taste almost instantly, just as generations have done before. Bushmills Original is a smooth and versatile triple distilled blend. An approachable whiskey which has been matured in both bourbon and sherry casks resulting in fresh fruit and vanilla notes.

About this whisky

Bushmills Original is a classic Irish whiskey that has been produced in the small town of Bushmills, Northern Ireland since 1608. This distillery is one of the oldest in the world and has a long history of producing high-quality whiskey. The production process begins with the selection of the finest grains, including barley and maize, which are then milled and mixed with water to create a mash. This mash is then fermented using a unique strain of yeast and distilled three times in copper pot stills. After distillation, the whiskey is aged for a minimum of three years in oak casks that have been previously used to age bourbon. This aging process helps to impart a rich and mellow flavour to the whiskey, with notes of vanilla, honey, and toasted oak.

Bushmills Original is a versatile whiskey that can be enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or as part of a cocktail. Its smooth and complex flavour profile makes it a popular choice for both whiskey enthusiasts and casual drinkers alike.

Overall, Bushmills Original is a classic Irish whiskey that has stood the test of time. Its rich history, unique production process, and complex flavour profile make it a must-try for anyone looking to explore the world of Irish whiskey.
