Bushmills… whiskey…

It’s St Patrick’s Day, and what else should we drink to celebrate but Guinness and Irish whiskey? We had Guinness at the pub and now we are home we have a couple of fingers of Bushmills whiskey. Bushmills is the oldest distillery in Ireland, dating back to 1608, and the reason it is such a fine whiskey is the water… water form the River Bush.  The River Bush is 33½ miles long and rises in the Antrim Hills at nearly 1600ft above sea level. it flows into the sea at Portballintrae, just by the golf course, and that is where I took my featured image.
