Bushmills Irish Honey
Country: Ireland
Region:
Type: Irish
Bottler: Distiller
ABV: 35%
Score: 86 Points
Technically, this is a whiskey liqueur because of the addition of honey, but unlike most whiskey liqueurs, one can actually taste the whiskey in it. The nose is more whiskey-like than honey, buttery with light ginger and oak notes. The taste has honey notes that develop over time, never overpowering the whiskey’s light, floral notes of lavender, grass, and a touch of caramel. The finish is long with a nice honey sweetness.
