About the Whiskey:
The Bushmills Private Reserve Collection is a new series of small batch single malts hand selected with unique cask finishes, born from the original Irish single malt tradition that Bushmills pioneered.
This 10 Year Old single malt Irish whiskey is first matured in carefully selected bourbon barrels and oloroso sherry casks for 6 years before finishing for a minimum of 4 years in first fill Pomerol Bordeaux casks.
93 Proof
Tasting Notes:
While the bourbon casks impart rich hints of vanilla and oak, the sherry casks infuse the whiskey with notes of dried fruits and spice, and the Bordeaux casks add subtle notes of currants, resulting in a whiskey of intense character.
Awards/Reviews:
93 Points, #18, Whisky Advocate Top 20 Of 2024
"The finest of the 2024 Bushmills Private Reserve U.S. exclusives, its 4 year finish in first-fill Pomerol wine casks serves up a fresh take on Bushmills 10 year old. This has a sweet malty nose of roasted nuts, dried vine fruit, cranberry, star anise, and glazed chocolate doughnut. The palate is a delicious mélange of caramel, vanilla, chocolate babka, mango, passion fruit, cherry, raspberry coulis, and cinnamon, pushing all the chips in for a magnificent finish of black cherry, peppercorn, and tiramisu."
