Tasting Notes and Characteristics:The first sip of Bushmills 10Yr Single Malt Irish Whiskey is like a gentle sunrise over the Antrim coast, with honeyed malt sweetness and delicate notes of ripe green apple unfolding across your palate. Crafted in Ireland from 100% malted barley and matured for a decade in seasoned bourbon barrels, this whiskey offers a smooth, approachable character at 40.00% ABV. Hints of vanilla and toasted wood mingle with subtle citrus zest, creating an elegant balance that lingers long after each taste. Bushmills 10Yr shines alongside smoked salmon, where its clean fruitiness lifts the rich fish oils, or paired with dark chocolate to highlight its creamy texture and nutty undertones—making every occasion feel just a bit more special.Producer Information: Old Bushmills DistilleryOld Bushmills Distillery, located in the village of Bushmills in County Antrim, Northern Ireland, traces its roots back to 1608 when it was first granted a license to distill, making it one of the oldest licensed whiskey distilleries in the world. The distillery’s heritage is deeply intertwined with the rugged landscape and pure water from St. Columb’s Rill, which shapes their signature triple-distilled single malt Irish whiskeys. Old Bushmills is distinguished by its commitment to traditional copper pot stills and a focus on malted barley, setting it apart within the Irish whiskey category for both smoothness and complexity. Beyond their classic single malts and blends like Black Bush and Red Bush, they have also produced limited edition cask finishes that highlight local influences such as sherry or port barrels. While whiskey remains their primary focus, Old Bushmills occasionally collaborates on special releases with other spirit producers but does not produce wine or non-whiskey spirits under their own label.
