The Old Bushmills Distillery is situated along the north coast of Ireland, where arctic storms rage against the jagged cliffs and where the crisp waters of the River Bush cut through volcanic rock. Here, generations have passed down an ancient distilling tradition.

For over 400 years, the distillery has carried on an ancient whiskey tradition. Generations have passed down a handcrafted art, triple-distilling their “smooth and mellow” whiskeys. Visit the distillery, just a few miles from Ireland’s rugged north coast, and see how we continue to triple-distill 100% malted barley in copper pot stills to make a pure malt whiskey.
