The Bushmills Distillery, located in picturesque County Antrim in Northern Ireland, is the oldest licensed whiskey distillery in the world. Its origins date back to 1608, when Sir Thomas Phillips received the first license to produce whiskey in the region. For over 400 years, the art of whiskey production has been cultivated and passed down from generation to generation at the Bushmills Distillery. The Causeway Collection is named after the nearby UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Giant's Causeway, whose impressive basalt formations provided the inspiration for these exceptional whiskeys. Each bottling in the collection features a variety of different cask maturations and is bottled at a high alcohol content without chill filtration. Bushmills THE CAUSEWAY COLLECTION Whiskey Cuvée Casks is initially aged for eight years in a combination of Oloroso sherry and bourbon casks. For its unique finish, it is then transferred to French wine barrels for two years, which gives it its complex structure and delicate aromas.
