Bushmills 12 Years Single Malt is the latest, permanent, release from the venerable distillery. 

It’s made using a marriage of 11+-year-old ex-Bourbon and ex-Oloroso casks that have been married and finished in ex-Marsala casks for 6-9 months. 

In a way, it’s like a baby Bushmills 21, or Bushmills 16, but with Marsala instead of Madeira or Port.

Bushmills 12 Years Single Malt Review

I love Bushmills… LOVE Bushmills. I’ve been a fan for over a decade and a half and I think they create not only some of the best Irish Whiskey, but some of the best sipping whiskey period… 

I just wish they’d bottle at least at 46% and NCF.

I’ve though this for a long time, and after trying some of the cask strength specialty casks a couple of years ago I’m even more of a believer in this. 

Until I tried them in that form I had no idea that on top of being more flavorful at higher proof and NCF, they’d also pick up a wonderful waxy texture.

The flavor I assumed would get a bit bolder, but that texture… wow. 

It was like some of the best waxy Clynelish SiBs I’ve had. 

I was shocked and I think if they did more in that form, specifically NCF, they’d go from having good whiskey to completley exceptional whisky across the board.
