If you've been in a bar (any bar, really), you've more than likely seen a bottle of this on the shelf. One of the most well-known Irish blends, Bushmills Black Bush features a lot of sherried malt in its recipe, alongside classically caramel-y grain whiskey. Suitable for enjoying neat, but it can also be used in whiskey cocktails that call for dark fruit sweetness...
Over-ripe grape and light citrus on the nose. A touch of toffee and peanut.
Vanilla and milk bottle sweeties. Dried peels, chamomile tea and cinnamon sticks.
Digestive biscuit, cooked plum and orange oil.
“Stunning stuff!”

Lovely balance. Nice Sherry notes. A great session dram.
So smooth, very easy to drink. For me, it works best on its own with a single ice cube. Hard to beat at the €30 price point, and punches above its weight.
First taste very pleasant, soft after taste, excellent with Christmas pudding :) Have been long to try Irish Whiskey and this was recommended. Very nice for a bend and well priced.
Extremely good on its own, over ice or with a drop of water. Vanilla and toffee on the palate with a smooth finish. Highly recommended.
