Commenting on the launch, Alex Thomas, Bushmills, Master
Blender, said: “This series is very special indeed. It includes a stunning
Barolo cask finish. Known as the ‘king of wines’ and the ‘wine of kings’
Barolo’s high quality and bold, powerful flavours were perfect for our Causeway
Collection. For 2024 we have also included a 2010 Double Moscatel finish.
Matured first exclusively in Oloroso sherry butts, it has been finished in two
types of rare Portuguese Moscatel casks and bottled at a natural cask strength
of 49.1% ABV, a truly exquisite whiskey.”
