Bushmills Prohibition Recipe Whiskey

The nose does have ash and that maltiness from the grain. On multiple sniffs you get almost a lemon lime pop like quality to it On first sip it is more viscous than Bushmills original with a typical shortbread cookie like flavor on the tongue, and a bitterness like eating raw walnuts on the finish. Overall i like it, not as shiny as the original and was worth the $29 to me.

Taste: It has a lot of wet cardboard and toasted marshmallow up front. It finishes with some warm oak. It is a little oily. Look: Golden Smell: Vanilla, breadiness, and honey

Being a scotch and irish whiskey guy i was reluctant to buy this bottle. Reviews were moderate - neither good nor bad - and because its was inexpensive i figured it had to be bottom shelf. And thats exactly where i foubd it one day at the liquor store. I bought it. Even mediocre it was 46%. So what the heck. I biught it. Much better than i thought. Not too sweet, a nice 46% kick and unlike the Distiller notes - i did sip it - neat - and it was very good. Not great. But very good.
