Black Bush Irish Whiskey is a rich, dark, blend from the world's oldest licensed distillery, Old Bushmills Distillery in County Antrim, Ireland. Triple-distilled in copper pot stills, the whiskey that becomes Black Bush is aged 8-10 years in carefully selected Oloroso sherry-seasoned oak casks before being blended with a small portion of a delicate sweet single grain whiskey.

Redbreast is one of the best-known Irish whiskies on the market. Check it out: Complex with great depth. Huskier than Powers but that same robustness, with apple notes. This Single Pot Still Irish whiskey is as Irish as it gets. 40%.
What is Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey you ask? It is whiskey made using a combination of malted and unmalted barley. Why do this you ask? Why, to dodge unfair taxation, of course! The Malt Tax came into being in Ireland for a short time starting in 1785, enforced by the (insert expletive said in your best Irish accent here) English. The Irish, being Irish, decided that they didn't need to use malted barley for the entirety of the mash used to distill whiskey and started adding portions of unmalted barley. Necessity being the mother of invention, this eventually became a legitimate style of whiskey-making that is now not just celebrated but codified into law in Ireland with the Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey classification.

One of the most sought-after Irish whiskies around: the 21-year-old single malt from Bushmills Distillery. It is triple distilled then matured in a mix of bourbon casks and Oloroso sherry before finishing in Madeira barrels. Bottled at 40% ABV.
Producer Description
"Our Bushmills 21 Year Old is a marriage of single malts matured for at least 19 years in hand-selected Oloroso sherry butts and bourbon barrels, then finished in Madeira casks for a further two years. This unusually long finishing period allows our single malt to patiently mellow, mature and pick up deeper notes of ripe fruit and dried raisins from the fortified Portuguese wine casks. Our 21 Year Old is only crafted in limited numbers and each bottle is numbered."
