About this bottle

Bushmills Private Reserve Tequila Cask is a 12 Year single malt from the Old Bushmills Distillery, initially matured in bourbon barrels and oloroso sherry casks before finishing for several years in reposado and añejo tequila casks sourced from Jalisco, Mexico. It's an unusual pairing that works — honey and vanilla on the nose lead into butterscotch and spiced vanilla on the palate, with a trace of agave sweetness carrying through a long, warming finish alongside apple and melon. This is a whiskey for drinkers curious what a genuinely different finishing cask brings to Irish single malt, rather than a straightforward everyday pour.

How to drink Bushmills 12 Year Private Reserve Tequila Cask

Neat is how to actually taste the tequila-cask influence — the agave sweetness and butterscotch notes fade fast once ice gets involved. A single large cube is fine if you want it slightly cooler, but treat this as a sipping whiskey, not a mixer.
