Disclaimer: I'm not a huge fan of Bushmills as a distillery, and this expression solidified my prejudice. The whiskey is pleasant enough with the ex-bourbon casks being the predominant flavour influence, as vanilla and honey hit your nose. The palate is fruity, with a difficult to identify aroma (sometimes grapes, sometimes cherries and sometimes apricots). And while the finish is pleasant, it's hard to come away inspired here.
