Bushmills Red Bush & Time & Oak Element



Bushmills Red Bush is a modestly priced minimum three-year aged whiskey.  While very smooth and sweet, overall this whiskey lacks the complexity found in more mature malt whiskeys.  Let’s see if an element can make it even better.
At 12 hours the element adds a nice light oak sweetness.
24 hours in we get more oak, very sweet flavors of maple syrup, and praline pecan while the finish has a lingering subtle sweetness.

48 hours it becomes funky, very heavy oak and an odd spiciness.



Well this experiment wasn’t very subtle and sweet! 24 hours with the element, and I was very happy with the results. This modestly priced Irish whiskey became something much more enjoyable.
