Producing WhiskyCast has given me the opportunity to taste some really amazing whiskies, and I’m pleased to share my tasting notes with you here. You can search my entire database of tasting notes from this page, and I hope you’ll find it useful.

Bushmills 1608

Country: Ireland

Region:

Type: Irish

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 46%

Score: 84 Points

This whiskey was released to celebrate the 400th anniversary of distilling in the area around Bushmills, and used “crystal malt” in the distilling process. The nose is clean and buttery with hints of ginger, hazelnut and marzipan. The taste is spicy with strong cinnamon bite and a hint of anise on top with touches of lemon. The finish has a lemony tartness balanced with cinnamon spiciness that fades slowly.
