Whiskey similar to black bush

maximum12

Not a big whiskey drinker but do really like black bush. Find it really smooth.

Any suggestions on other widely available whiskeys with a similar profile?

L1011

Crested Ten would probably be the closest, although Bushmills has a distinctive enough taste across their line from their own malt (Black Bush can contain whiskey made by other distilleries; Bushmills Single Malts don't).

I occasionally buy Crested Ten if its on a cheaper offer at that time than Black Bush, Black being my normal choice.

Brockagh

Have you tried Bushmills 10? Or anything else from the Bushmills range. Blackbush is a blend with only five or ten percent grain, so it's pretty high quality. The Bushmills 1608 Anniversary is another good option.

After that, if you want something with a touch of sherry and malt, the Tyrconnell Sherry finsih isn't bad.

Writers Tears although its a bit dearer is a very smooth drop. Well worth trying even as a sampler....
