Bushmills Original Irish Whiskey, known for its centuries-old legacy and as a significant figure in the Irish whiskey landscape, offers a traditional blend of single malt and grain whiskies. Triple-distilled and presented without an age statement, this whiskey embodies the classic characteristics Bushmills is celebrated for, maintaining a recipe that has been consistent for over 100 years.
The nose is described as mild with hints of fortune cookies, sesame seeds, and a light apple note, set against an earthy backdrop. The palate leans towards dryness for an Irish whiskey, featuring a woody edge sweetened with honey and notes of pretzel dough. The finish rounds out with a biscuit-like quality, gently spiced and quite mild, making Bushmills Original a straightforward choice, particularly suitable for mixing if you find alternatives like Jameson too sweet.
Bushmills, the world's oldest licensed whiskey distillery established in 1608, has continuously used 100% malted barley, triple-distilled in copper pot stills. Despite its historical significance, Bushmills Original is seen as a lighter and hotter offering compared to other Bushmills whiskeys, with a profile that includes pronounced alcohol burn, fruitiness akin to bubblegum and tart apple, backed by a raw cereal character and light vanilla.
It presents as quite light, especially when compared to Bushmills' more weighty and barrel-driven expressions like Red Bush and Black Bush. While Bushmills Original is celebrated for its smoothness and complexity, its adaptability makes it a fitting companion for a wide array of occasions and pairings
