Bushmills
16 Year Old Whiskey
Customer Rating
“The best whiskies take their time to open up and reveal their true beauties deep within. This is one. 16 years of cask aging and deliberation deserves a few minutes at least of your time. Nose is slow to expose that typical sweetness, but it’s there. All brown sugar and red fruits. The taste is a toffee like sweet shop delight - childhood memories without the adult booze, and a long slightly spicy finish that takes you to the deeper darker parts of the hidden orchard and rather earthy delights. Your patience will be rewarded.”

Description
An award-winning 16 year old Irish single malt from Bushmills based in Northern Ireland. Aged in three different cask types: bourbon, Port and sherry maturation imparts notes of fruit, nuts and spices – a great example of the influence of different cask maturation. The brand has retained its small batch philosophy for over 400 years, which is wonderful.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
A classic Irish nose of honey, yoghurt and tinned stone fruit, this also has a lovely cassia bark character which develops in the glass.
Palate
Spiced and rich with juicy summer fruits, Christmas spices, pine oil, manuka honey and peaches in syrup.
Finish
Thick and syrupy with notes of red berries and Golden Syrup.
