Portrait: What makes the Bushmills Black Bush special

Bushmills Black Bush is the marriage of a large proportion of malt whiskey with a smaller amount of sweeter grain whiskey. The malt whiskey used matured in old Oloroso Sherry barrels, the grain whiskey in former bourbon barrels.
The result is a blended Whiskey with plenty of fruity notes and an intense character.

Like all Bushmills whiskeys, Bushmills Black Bush is distilled three times. In the traditional way, the mash contains unmalted barley, which is not dried using peat smoke. This gives the whiskeys from Bushmills Distillery their typically soft and fruity character and tastes significantly less rough than most Scottish malts.
