BUSHMILLS 16 YEAR OLD

THREE WOOD, FINISHED IN PORT PIPES

Our Bushmills 16 Year Old is a marriage of single malts matured for at least 16 years in hand-selected Oloroso sherry butts and bourbon barrels, then finished in port pipes for up to a year. This triple casking transforms the colour to a beautiful ruby red and adds layers of juicy sun-ripened dark fruit and berries, complex almond nuttiness and a treacly vanilla spice.

TASTING NOTES

Caramelised red berries, toasted nuts and vanilla spice.

CASKS: Sherry, bourbon and port

COLOUR: Ruby red

NOSE: The robustness of the three woods is immediately evident with big aromas of treacle toffee intermingling with sweet spice accents of cinnamon and nutmeg

TASTE: Robust flavours of caramelised peaches and mango marry notes of toasted almonds and walnuts, giving exceptional depth and complexity

FINISH: Layered and lingering, initial notes of concentrated jammed berries lead to a silky milk chocolate finish

HOW TO DRINK: Best savoured neat or over ice
