Tasted it and then bought a bottle at the Celtic Whiskey Shop in Dublin. One of the finest whiskies I've ever had. I have bottle # 79 of 646. Cask #5. Distilled Oct 16 1991. Bottled Feb 8 2016. It's made from double distilled crystal malt (so, I'm guessing it came from Bushmills), then matured for 22 years in ex-Bourbon, then 2+ years in a Quinta Da Noval Port barrel.
