About the Bushmills Distillery:

Bushmills, the world's oldest licensed whiskey distillery, has its roots dating back to 1608, when a license to distill was granted in the northern coast of Ireland. With over 400 years of tradition, Bushmills is synonymous with quality and craftsmanship passed down from generation to generation. Every bottle of Bushmills is a testament to its rich history and the art of distillation.

Bushmills is not just a place where whiskey is made, it is also a community where family, friends, and neighbors work side by side in the distillery. The village and the distillery are inextricably linked—without the village, there would be no whiskey, and without whiskey, there would be no village.
