The Busker Blended Whisky 700ml
The Busker Blended Irish Whiskey is a smooth and versatile Irish whiskey produced at Royal Oak Distillery in County Carlow, Ireland. The blend combines Single Grain whiskey with a significant proportion of Single Malt and Single Pot Still whiskey, bringing together the three classic Irish whiskey styles produced at the distillery.
Known for its triple-cask approach, The Busker is matured and finished in ex-Bourbon, Sherry and Marsala casks. This combination contributes layers of tropical fruit, vanilla, malt, sweetness and subtle spice, creating a balanced whiskey with a rich character and approachable finish.
Bottled at 40% ABV in a 700ml bottle, The Busker is suitable for enjoying neat or over ice, while its smooth and versatile character also makes it well suited to highballs, mixed drinks and cocktails.
