• Bushmills 16 Year Irish Whiskey 750ml (Elsewhere $70) ($52.99) 95 points Wine Enthusiast: “This robust single-malt whiskey is matured in Sherry and Bourbon casks. Look for a balanced mix of creamy caramel, maple, dried apricots, a subtle raspberry jam note and a rounded, spicy finish.” (03/2014)

• Bushmills 21 Year Irish Whiskey 750ml (Elsewhere $120) ($79.99) 93 points Wine Enthusiast: “This aged spirit shows Irish whiskey’s dark side. It retains the enticing fresh-fruit aroma of younger bottlings, plus a luscious layer of butterscotch. On the palate, it’s oaky and drying, with complex notes of toffee, dark chocolate, toasted nuts, caramel and a spicy finish. The whiskey is aged for a minimum of 19 years in former oloroso Sherry and Bourbon barrels, then transferred to Madeira casks for the final two years of maturation. Treat it like Scotch: add just a splash of water to open up the flavors. ” (03/2014) K&L Notes: The most highly awarded and critically acclaimed Irish Single Malt over 21 years old.
