Description: This Bushmills 1608 is a special edition bottling to commemorate the 400th anniversary of the license to distil aqua vitae in Antrim originally granted to Sir Thomas Phillips in 1608. It is a unique blend of tradition and innovation.
It is a blend of some well aged grain whiskeys along with some special Crystal Malt which has been aged on a combination of American Bourbon and Spanish Oloroso Sherry casks. This is finely crafted Irish whiskey that will be widely available during Bushmills 400th anniversary year of 2008. Thereafter supplies will be limited to duty free outlets. So buy it now while you can.
Tasting Notes: The Crystal malt adds some pleasant chocolate flavours to the whiskey which combine extremely well with the vanilla characters from the Amercian oak and the spicy toffee characters from the Oloroso Sherry casks.
