Concerning Bushmills
Master Distiller Colum Egan once said that the oldest licensed whiskey in the world isn’t wonderful because it’s ancient; rather, it’s the other way around. Bushmills, which is situated in the village of Bushmills on Ireland’s north coast, was given a royal distilling license in 1608. The water is drawn from the River Bush that runs through the village and is deeply ingrained in the lives of the residents who labor side by side in this fabled distillery.
With new products, Bushmills continues to amaze its devoted customers almost 400 years later. Due to its unwavering dedication to quality, the distillery survived a devastating fire, Prohibition, and crippling grain taxes. A tax on barley permanently altered other Irish whiskeys, but this illustrious distillery persisted in making single malt whiskey the old-fashioned way, never using barley in place of corn or other subpar grains. The distillery has received innumerable honors, including the first whiskey Gold Medal ever given out at the 1889 Paris Expo.

Concerning Irish Whiskey
Irish whiskey was mentioned about a century before its Scottish brother, despite the common misconception that whisk(e)y was invented by Scots.
Irish whiskey originated when monks who were distilling perfume decided to make some minor adjustments to the recipe.
There aren’t many restrictions on what constitutes “pure” Irish whiskey; it can be created using a variety of grains and methods as long as it’s kept in wooden casks for at least three years and has an alcohol content of no more than 94.8%.
