Producer Information

Every bottle of Bushmills Irish Whiskey carries the year 1608 on. This was the year that James I of England (James VI of Scotland) issued a licence to distil County Antrim in Ireland. Bushmills Whiskey Distillery itself, however, wasn’t registered until 1784 by Hugh Anderson. How old is Bushmills Whiskey Distillery? In 1860 the distillery was bought by two spirit merchants from Belfast called James McColgan and Patrick Corrigan, and they formed a limited company in 1880. In 1885 the old distillery was destroyed by fire, a perennial problem in an industry based on a highly flammable liquid, but was quickly rebuilt. At the time, the Irish whiskey industry was the largest in the world and Bushmills was just one of many distilleries in the country. In 1922, the Irish Free State was formed while six counties in the north including Antrim stayed as part of the United Kingdom. Despite now being in a different state, Bushmills has remained close to the rest of the country’s whiskey industry which went into serious decline after independence. At one point there were only two distilleries left on the island, Bushmills and Midleton in Cork, and they were both part of the same group Irish Distillers. In 2005, having been part of Irish Distillers since 1972, parent company Pernod Ricard sold Bushmills to Diageo. The brand had been stagnant and the new owners set a goal to reach 1 million cases by the end of 2012 and invested around €45 million in the distillery itself as well as the brand. Diageo increased the production rate to five days a week and since 2008, they have implemented a seven-day week. This tripled production in just 2.5 years. Then in 2014, the distillery was bought by Tequila giant Casa Cuervo which has carried on building the brand.
