Bushmills Black Bush Whiskey (Old Bottling)

Colour

Deep amber with mahogany depth and a warm copper glow.

Nose

Sherried and lush, it opens with dark fruit—raisin, fig, plum—woven with toasted oak and a note of rich chocolate. Vanilla and honey sweetness glisten, while gentle spices—clove and cinnamon—spark a warm, refined bouquet. Leather and orange zest add depth, hinting at old-bottle maturity and velvety complexity.

Palate

Silky and medium-bodied, this Irish whiskey coats the palate with dark honey and raisin sweetness crowned by fig and toffee. Cocoa notes emerge alongside soft oak, while a whisper of sherry lends spice—cinnamon and nutmeg. The finish is warm and lingering, with subtle orchard fruits and a hint of malt.

Finish

Long and velvety, the finish reveals dark fruit and chocolatey notes, threaded with warm spice and toasted oak. The sweetness persists, wrapping the palate in refined cocoa-dusted warmth that slowly fades to a soft, lingering glow.
