Found on County Antrim’s rugged coastline, the village of Bushmills is home to the world’s oldest licensed whiskey distillery. Official records stretch back to 1608, when the area was granted its license to distil. Over 400 years later, whiskey is still being made in Bushmills, thanks to experience and craft passed down from generation to generation. Their water, drawn from the River Bush, flows over beds of basalt rock, the same rock that lends its unique character to another famous local attraction – the Giant’s Causeway. Bushmills is more than just a whiskey. It’s a village, where family, friends and neighbours work side by side at the distillery.
