Bushmills Causeway Collection 2011 Sauternes Cask Single Malt Whiskey
The Causeway Collection is a selection of extremely rare and unique aged and cask finished Irish single malt whiskeys from The Old Bushmills Distillery – the world’s oldest licensed whiskey distillery. The 2011 Sauternes Cask was first aged for over seven years in oloroso sherry butts and bourbon barrels and then in rare Sauternes wine casks for two years. The French casks that have housed this sweet white wine from the Sauternes region of Bordeaux bring an abundance of delicate summer fruit flavours and fresh grapes.

TASTE: Our signature Bushmills sweet and spicy flavours give way to layers of vanilla and honey, followed by hints of citrus and toffee apple
FINISH: A long and warming summer fruits finish
