Bushmills Steamship Collection Sherry Cask Reserve

Here in Denver for business (unfortunately not skiing), and I noticed this sitting at the hotel bar. Unopened, a bit dusty, and nestled between a JB and Redbreast. Triple distilled Irish matured in sherry cask? That’s not common, is it? Either way, a worthwhile pour. Light, sweet, but not too sweet. With a nice hefty backbone of raisins and dark fruits. Would I buy a full bottle? Probably not, but interesting to try if you ever see it at a bar.

Sweet to the initial taste. Vanilla and sweet oaky flavor.

A rather expensive drink, but is to be savoured and sipped slowly, enjoying each new flavour.
