The "Old Bushmills" Distillery is the World's Oldest Licensed Distillery. King James I granted the original license to distil "Acqua Vitae" in April 1608 and Bushmills has been making the finest Irish Malt Whiskey for almost four hundred years since. Situated just a mile from the spectacular Giant's Causeway, the distillery lies in an area of outstanding natural beauty rich in history and folklore. The Distillery runs a guided tour for you to see everything first hand, and of course no visit would be complete without enjoying a glass of the final product.
