Tasting note

Ten years in used bourbon barrels add to the profile of this dram. Pale gold; your nose will find aromas of ripe pear, toasted oak, caramel, citrus peel and white pepper; on the palate, it is warming, with a light sweetness and medium body; flavours of tree fruit, caramel, citrus and toasted almond play on a long finish.

The distinctive Bushmills light fruity aroma travels over the lip of your tumbler to deliver 10 years of maturation mostly in bourbon seasoned barrels. That old Kentucky spirit becomes melted chocolate and honey that sits on the tongue and for me slightly dries the back of the throat.

Melted chocolate that rests on the tongue before releasing a hint of honey in your cheeks.

A consistent high scoring Irish single malt, showing fruity and floral aromas followed by a medium-bodied palate with chocolate and spice. The fruitiness continues on a gentle and long finish.
