About this bottle
Bushmills 16 Year Old Single Malt is matured in a combination of bourbon and Oloroso sherry casks, then finished for the final months in port pipes — the extra step that sets it apart from Bushmills' other single malts. From the distillery in County Antrim, licensed since 1608, it's triple-distilled from 100% malted barley. Expect a deep golden color, honeyed dried fruit and toffee on the nose, and a smooth, creamy palate of toasted oak, vanilla, and light spice, closing on a long finish with a whisper of smoke from the port influence. It's a step up in complexity from the entry Bushmills malts, built for slow, attentive sipping.
How to drink Bushmills 16 Year Old Single Malt
Pour it neat and give it a few minutes — the port finish needs air to show itself fully. Water is optional here; this one doesn't need dilution to open up.
