DESCRIPTION
Bushmills has released a limited-edition "1608" to mark their anniversary. Distilled with crystal malt—a special malted barley called "crystal" because of its bead-like appearance. This whiskey delivers the exceptional smoothness and sweet toffee-like notes you expect from Bushmills. Creamy and mouth-filling with lots of raspberry and currant fruit. A blend of three different types of whiskey - malt whiskey, grain whiskey, and a third component which is said to be a malt whiskey produced from crystal malt. Layers of sweetness (honeyed vanilla, rummy molasses, toasted marshmallow) are balanced by toasted nuts, dried fruit, and dark chocolate.
