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.
I usually have JW Green Label, Maccalan 12y fine oak, since I like Wiskey strait or with 2 ice cubes, now the Black Bush that is new in Mexico at a very affordable price around 30 USD and I just love the flavor, for half the price of the above mentioned. Triple Distilled Ireland whiskey is rare in Mexico, I tried it when I lived in Chicago and loved it. Now, about the Black Bush, the taste is awesome, sheery almost sweet, not astringent at all, you just don't feel the alcohol, still it has some complexities you won't find in JW Black Label or similar priced Single Malt scotches, that is why I give it 5 stars
Honestly i d not buy it again. Taste cheap blend, the white one is better. If u like sweet add some blackberry honey . not recommended
Absolutely the best Bushmill whiskey around.
Buyer beware, this whiskey is almost too smooth. I put it in my 235ml flask to keep track of how much I drank, and after 1 shot I was drinking it straight from the flask with no chaser. This whiskey is seriously that good. I'm new to whisky reviews so I couldn't really describe the nose or the taste but I can tell you it is up there with the best scotch or bourbon I have ever drank. It is much stronger than it tastes which I believe is a good thing, it doesn't have the burn of Glenmorangie or of Booker's bourbon, it almost has a sweet taste. Overall I think this may become my go to whiskey
Excellent nose, good body, light, floral, sweet and fruit. Long and spicy finish. for $30 this is really good, would buy again! Overall: this is like a really fruity and well bodied Speyside style whisky, the 80% malt is definitely showing.
