Bushmills 10 Year Old Sauternes Cask Causeway Collection Cask Strength Single Malt Irish Whiskey 700mL

Bushmills presents its 4th edition of The Causeway Collection designed and created by the famous Alex Thomas in homage to the Irish Giant's Causeway.

Following the success of its first 3 editions, Bushmills presents a new limited edition aged and refined in exceptional barrels. This cask strength, non-chill-filtered Irish Single Malt was first aged in Oloroso Sherry and Bourbon barrels for 6 years.

Subsequently, Master Blender Alex Thomas finished this remarkable whiskey for 4 years in precious barrels that contained sweet Sauternes wine, coming from the famous Graves region near Bordeaux. These rare wine barrels impart a deliciously creamy and intense fruit flavour from Sémillon, Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadelle grapes.

This sensational whiskey ranks among the best Irish Single Malts, a giant in its own right.
