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.”

Bushmills 16 Year Old

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.

"Age matters"

For a 40% Alc/Vol , I Would generally steer clear. In this case, the Whisky has retained the necessary body and flavour that normally requires a higher strength. All I can say is, what a damn shame it is so hard to get,as I grabbed the last 2 bottles that were available in a local Melbourne liquor store. In closing," EPIC" - grab it if you can!

New to Irish whiskey

For years I tried to understand the fuss over Scotch Whisky... I have found heaven in a bottle, the Irish way...My sister returned from Ireland and presented me with the 12 reserve and the 16 year olds. Excellent from start to finish, the 16 is flawless.

Please get this back in!

Blue cheese & Sultanas hit you as soon as you take this into your mouth. Its light bodied, juicy & sweet from the sherry casks, with spicy wood notes which make your mouth tingle from the Bourbon casks, then you get chocolate, tonka bean & vanilla as you swallow. It leaves your palate feeling slight dry & your tongue with a warm sun kissed glow.

Bushmills Three Woods

The best I ever had !!!!!

If you like it smooth...

Then this is it. It's absolutely delicious, and just spooky smooth on the finish. I've never had an Irish whisky, or any Scotch, bourbon, Canadian, nothing with the "what was that!?" smooth factor. And incredible achievement.
