solid pour, always smooth but a little lighter than I go for.
Response from CBC Liquors, Westford
Sounds like you might like the Black Bush for something with a bit more heft.

Bushmills goes down easy but it hits harder than I remembered. One glass and I was definitely feeling it. Decent for a chill Friday night.
