It is actually a 6 bottle case and runs about $100 per bottle....but worth every cent! Alot of sites say it is ony $50 per bottle , that is because they assume it is a 12 bottle case.

Don't know if you will find any out there (I found 3) but that is half price of what it listed for in the last book. Mistake? maybe, but sure makes this whiskey a GREAT deal!

The license was not for the Bushmills distillery to distill whisky but to allow distilling in the Bushmills region. (Yes, my statement was misleading. Sorry abou that.) Martyn, thanks for your note.

Granted it's licence in 1608 by King James 1. The town has been there much longer than 400 years Cheers from Bushmills, Northern Ireland I think you’ll find that the whiskey was launched to celebrate the 400th anniversary of the distillery!

I was very surprised by the complexity of aromas and flavors starting from the fruity nose, followed by the immediate honey like sweetness, then by a toffee like bourbon finish which seemed to stay forever.
