Bushmills Distillery x The Designerie at The Courthouse

Something Special in the Heart of Bushmills Village

We’re so excited to share some wonderful news from right here in Bushmills — The Designerie at The Courthouse has teamed up with none other than the legendary Bushmills Whiskey Distillery. It’s a collaboration that feels just right: a celebration of craft, heritage, and the rich flavours that make Northern Ireland so special.

This isn’t just about two names coming together. It’s about a shared love for tradition, for makers who pour their heart into their work, and for products that tell a story.

More Than Just Whiskey — A Source of Inspiration

Bushmills isn’t just famous for its whiskey (although, yes, it’s absolutely world-class). It’s a part of the community here — a source of inspiration for many local artisans.

Over time, some truly talented makers around us have been blending the warm, golden notes of Bushmills into their own crafts. Think silky chocolates with a touch of whiskey, tangy preserves bursting with flavour, and even baked goodies with just the right hint of spirit.

Now, thanks to this exciting partnership, you can discover these special creations right here in The Designerie — no need to head to the distillery itself, unless you want to of course!

Celebrating Our Local Makers

This collaboration is also about shining a light on the amazing people who make our community so vibrant. Each artisan adds their own magic, honouring Bushmills’ rich heritage while bringing their unique twist.

Here’s a little taste of what you might find:

• Chocolate Makers crafting luscious truffles infused with Bushmills’ smooth character.

• Preserve Artisans creating jams and chutneys that carry a warm, whiskey-kissed glow.

• Bakers whipping up shortbread and cakes with that perfect golden hint of the North Coast spirit.

• Craftspeople who bring the story to life through beautiful woodwork, ceramics, and textiles inspired by the distillery and landscape.

Why We’re So Proud of This

For us at The Designerie, this is more than just a collab — it’s a real celebration of community. Bushmills Distillery is a huge name worldwide, but here at home, they’re just as committed to supporting local talent and keeping our village spirit alive.

Bringing these unique products into The Courthouse means you get to enjoy the very best of Bushmills and Bushmills-made — all while supporting small, local businesses who put love into every creation.

Come Say Hello & See What’s New

We’d love for you to pop by and explore this beautiful collection in person. Every item has a story, a little bit of local soul, and a connection to this wonderful place we’re lucky to call home.

Whether you pick up a treat for yourself, a thoughtful gift, or just soak up the atmosphere, you’ll leave with a little something special — the true spirit of Bushmills in your hands.
