The following article was created in collaboration with bush mills.
Have you ever stopped your precious game of golf because of inclement weather, flooded greens, or a caddy with a cold? Let that fear fade to a distant memory as an exciting new experience will have you chasing your perfect swing all year long.
A groundbreaking collaboration, the Bushmills Irish Whiskey x Playfair Golf experience is the good news every Aussie has been waiting for. Offering golfers, whiskey fans new and old, or the elite few who fall into both camps, the opportunity to work on their game with a drink in hand.
In an exciting announcement, Bushmills has announced that you can now taste their 10-year-old single malt as part of their groundbreaking collaboration with Playfair Golf, a state-of-the-art venue in East Sydney that combines world-leading technology with the historic game of golf. Not only can you enjoy a single malt – which, by the way, is just as delicious neat, on the rocks or as part of your choice of cocktails – but you can also take advantage of professional coaching from top players.
In many ways the collaboration makes perfect sense: Bushmills is a whiskey built on craft, heritage and the pursuit of perfection in distillation with a history well over 400 years old. The great game of golf is essentially the same, born from the same Celtic roots, combining a long, rich heritage with the endless search for the perfect performance. They are without a doubt kindred spirits.
It’s no secret that we’re longtime fans of Bushmills Irish Whiskey. Based in County Antrim, just a stone’s throw from the famous Giant’s Causeway, Bushmills is recognized worldwide as the gold standard in whiskey production. They create unbeatable single malts using traditional and top-secret methods passed down through many secret generations, while remaining committed to a small-batch process and grain-to-glass philosophy despite their booming business.
Bushmills 10YO Single Malt is legendary: Triple distilled for a minimum of ten years in sherry-aged and bourbon-flavoured casks, it has a fruity, honeyed aroma with notes of honey, vanilla and milk chocolate that will set the taste buds burning for longtime whiskey fans and newcomers alike. It is also one of the few Irish distilleries to use 100% malted barley to create the smooth flavor they are so well known for.
Playfair’s own history may be much shorter than Bushmills’, but it’s no less impressive. With a mission to bring the legacy of golf into the 21st century with an unwavering commitment to community, confidence and improving player performance, their pioneering approach is a perfect complement to Bushmills’ centuries-old heritage. In fact, in many ways this feels like a match made in heaven as both parties bring traditional roots but a non-negotiable obsession with innovation to the partnership.
Rest assured that Playfair Golf’s studio truly has all the amenities you need to perfect your game while the Bushmills 10YO Single Malt tickles your taste buds. The experience is complete with a virtual driving range, immaculate putting range, and club fitting and repair facilities. When you’re done, round off your session at the immaculate Bushmills Bar, where you can settle down with DMARGE’s favorite tipple
