This year’s festive season will be extra special for lovers of premium Irish whiskey, following the launch of Bushmills 15 Year Old Single Malt earlier this year. This luxurious new offering is matured in first and second-fill bourbon barrels for at least 14 years, then finished for up to 12 months in rare, aged cognac casks. Exclusive to the UK market, this smooth, triple distilled whiskey balances Bushmills' distinctive floral and fruity style with an elegant French influence which creates a deliciously lighter profile.
On the nose, it offers hints of gentle toasted oak and soft spice, followed by warm vanilla with sensational caramelised pear richness on the palate. Now available in Tesco and Sainsbury’s stores across the UK, the 15 Year Old is the perfect bottle to have at home during the festive season. It’s easily accessible, versatile enough to appeal to a range of guests, and offers a flavour profile that marries beautifully with the warm, rich and fruity tones of Christmas.
Pop it into your trolley on your next shopping trip as you stock up for the holidays. Enjoy it in a cocktail The 15 Year Old is an outstanding expression served on its own, with ice or with a splash of water, but it’s also a fantastic base for a Christmas cocktail. Try a few of our favourites.
