A superb 10 year old Irish single malt whiskey and winner of Best Irish Single Malt Whiskey at the 2007 World Whiskies Awards. Wonderfully fruit-forward, with a good helping of vanilla and warming oaky spices in support.
Cooked banana and tropical fruit.
Guava, cantaloupe melon, over-ripe white peach, vanilla and peels.
Floral, spicy finish.
Add a drop of water and it tastes just like nectarine chunks in low fat yoghurt!
In Bushumills' Whiskey form North Ireland I always feel the hint of peat comparing with Jameson. Is it because of my illusional feeling?
I've tried quite few lower priced Irish Whiskies and loved Jameson for a while. But this Bushmills 10 year old is infinitely better. SO SMOOTH AND TASTY.
This is a very smooth whiskey, perhaps a bit too smooth. There is really no depth here, but it's perfect for everyday sipping. On a sidenote, the whiskey taste 100 percent like nectarine bits in yoghurt, if you add a few drops of water. Spot on! And also quite tasty.
I was 17 when I first tasted it (such a rebel), and it's been my whiskey of choice ever since. It's very smooth, and it's the best Single Malt in its price range in my opinion. It might not mean much coming from someone who doesn't drink often, but I've yet to find a better tasting Whiskey.
Very good, fruity and Smooth, nice spicy orange finish. I would have prefer it a bit more salty and creamy, i think it would have been a killer whisky ! Considering the Price range, Still a very good surprise.
