Aged in Three Woods.

This is a whiskey for the connoisseur of aged malt whiskeys. To be savoured neat or with just a small drop of water, it is a proud expression of the centuries old tradition of malt whiskey distilling at the Old Bushmills Distillery.

Maturing in Oloroso sherry and bourbon before finishing in marsala casks gives this unique single malt whiskey its rich dried fruit and sherry complexity.

TASTING NOTES

Colour: Amber.

Nose: Very very fruity. Peaches, bananas, mango straight off the bat. These then give way to the sherry influence with marzipan, raisins, malt and a hint of allspice.

In the mouth: It has a light, delicate mouthfeel. Very honeyed with cloves initially, like a cold ‘hot toddy’ then the fruit makes its appearance, caramelised banana, Seville orange zest, sweet malt with clove spice running throughout before notes of chocolate, raisins and star anise come to the fore. The finish is medium, remaining sweet although with a touch of spicy European oak.

Love this whiskey

Very smooth

Easier on the palate.

I will compare it to my current favourite, the Bushmills 10YO Single Malt.
A lot "darker" than the 10YO, which I would have believed to be "harder", like comparing a normal beer to a stout.
Conversely, it is much smoother, less bite, and easier to savour.

Bushmills 12yo_ A beautiful nose

The nose on this is fantastic IMO, and the taste is pretty decent. I tend to agree with some other reviews online - This whiskey could be amazing if only Bushmills would bottle it at 46% abv and non chill filter.
Its a good Irish whiskey, and certainly worth a try, but it could be sooo much more.
