About This Whiskey
Bushmills 25 Year Old Single Malt Irish Whiskey is a landmark release from the world’s oldest licensed distillery. Made in County Antrim using traditional triple distillation methods, this ultra-premium Irish whiskey is aged in both bourbon barrels and sherry butts, before receiving a remarkable six-year finish in first-fill ruby port pipes. The result is a deep and elegant whiskey, bottled at 46% ABV and non-chill filtered for maximum flavour and character.
Part of Bushmills' permanent luxury collection alongside the 30 Year Old, this whiskey Ireland release showcases the brand’s mastery of time, wood, and distillation. Aged for over two decades before its port cask finish, it expresses lush layers of dark fruit, spice, and smooth vanilla oak — perfect for sipping, gifting, or collecting. If you’re looking to buy whiskey online that combines heritage, flavour, and finesse, the Bushmills 25 Year Old stands tall among the very best.
