The Rare Casks: 03
Introducing Limited Release #03 from Bushmills®’ “The Rare Casks” series, featuring some of the world's rarest single malt whiskeys aged in hand-selected casks and released in small quantities across the US.
The oldest entry in the series to date, 30 Year Old Single Malt: Madeira Cask introduces a distinctive new cask finish into the Rare Cask repertoire; the spirit spends the latter majority of its maturation in 3 hand-selected first-fill Madeira wine casks after first aging in bourbon and sherry casks for just over 13 years.
