This 21 Y/O spirit , cloaked in black and wears classic elegance, captured beautifully in its bottle that instantly draws my eyes. It is bold and robust with strong oak notes, yet glides smoothly like silk on the palate. Not to be overlooked is the popular 16 Y/O in ruby — infused with Southeast Asian flavors of nutmeg and cinnamon, it offers a sweet, fruity warmth that feels both passionate and inviting. Together, these Bushmills expressions create a perfect balance. I adore the 21 Y/O spirit; its depth is like the ocean itself. Sad to see it out of stock that needs to be waited patiently.
Fall in love on my first try 2 years ago. Love the oak taste and smoothness that is unbeatable. Bushmills 21 year old the whiskey is still the one.
Just had a glass in a pub in Portrush and was very impressed.Its the only Irish whiskey that even comes close to Scottish single malts.
It’s the age old problem with old malts, tannins and of the strong oaky type. The whisky is nice if you can ignore the flavour as if you’ve been sucking on a lump of wet of oak. It shows it’s cask age to well even for a 21 year old. It’s got some lovely flavours but nowhere is there tobacco just oak neither is there “chewy dates” as Master Of Malt said. (I think they are selling it a little to hard there) we know supposedly it’s a good dram from its awards but I hasten to think that was a few hundred batches ago like 10 years ago when the batches were not as tannin rich may be ? Or may be a few good batches ? In any case I’ve found some nice flavours but those tannins are strong and immediately over power the other flavours because you just get a quick smack in the face with lovely sweet apricot like flavours and then the oak keeps building and building until you get that dry oakyness (if thats a word) on the sides of your tongue that you wouldn’t be wrong to reach for the mouthwash to not endure it anymore. May be a 17 Y/O would be better but for now this just falls flat on it’s face what a let down and for an expensive dram it just does not deliver the goods so my rating will reflect this value for money disparage.
