Bushmills 1995 Marsala Casks Finish / The Causeway Collection - Ireland
The Old Bushmills distillery in Northern Ireland is the world's oldest licensed whiskey producer, granted a license to distil whisky in 1608. The modern iteration of the distillery was built in 1885, following a fire. Old Bushmills was bought by the Irish Distillers group in 1971, giving them a full monopoly on the production of whiskey on the island, lasting until 1987 when Cooley was opened by the Teeling family. Diageo later bought the site in 2005, before trading it 9 years later with Casa Cuervo in exchange for a stake in one of their Tequila brands.
This whiskey was distilled on 22nd November 1995. After a period of maturation, it was transferred into ex-Marsala wine casks in March 2006 before finally being bottled at cask strength and as part of The Causeway Collection in 2017.
This limited release was made exclusive to Ireland.
