Bushmills - Peaky Blinders Prohibition Recipe
Bushmills Blended and Single Malt whiskeys are steeped in 400-year-old tradition. A whiskey that is true to the era, a taste of Prohibition, but also overachieves in complexity and intensity, a true testament to the Peaky Blinders way of life. Drink like Tommy Shelby.
Nose: There is a pronounced medley of tropical fruit on the nose alongside notes of overripe pear, yellow plum, sweet corn, and caramel sauce. This is very fruity and pungent. Aeration helps bring forth notes of dried berries and spice with a faintly juniper quality. Notes of ripe, yellow bananas dominate, almost verging on banana fruit candy.
Palate: In the mouth, the whiskey is sweetly fruity, with cloying notes of ripe bananas and whole grain bread. The texture is soft and smooth with a gentle pepperiness. There are, as expected, heavy banana notes on the fruity finish as the whiskey gently evaporated in the back of the mouth. This is smooth and easy drinking.
