Bushmills 10 year old Private Reserve Burgundy Barrel Finished, 47%

Price: 60 Issue: Summer 2024 Reviewer: Shane English Category: Irish Single Malt

With 6 years in bourbon barrels and sherry casks and a 4-year finish in burgundy barrels, this single malt’s fruity notes sing loud and proud. Jammy berries, spiced apple cider, and nutty sweetness lead on both the nose and the palate, with vanilla ice cream and cream soda adding depth to the sip. The finish has good length and closes out this sweet treat with toasted sugar and sweet vanilla latte.
