South Africans bring home Bushmills trophy

The South African team of Sean Tickner and Jonathan Oliff, who were chosen to represent South Africa in Northern Ireland at the World Whiskey Games hosted by Bushmills Irish Whiskey, have come home with the winning trophy.

Over the past few days, they competed in a series of challenges including barrel-rolling, beach-golfing and whiskey-tasting to impress the panel of judges with their strong friendship, teamwork and creativity.

The two friends have won two weeks working at the world-famous Old Bushmills Distillery, where they will make their own unique blend of Bushmills Irish Whiskey, live in luxury penthouse accommodation and get £5000 spending money.

After their experience, they will 'take home the distillery', with the ultimate Bushmills party to be held in Cape Town later this year.

Fans can follow them on www.facebook.com/bushmillssouthafrica on Twitter at @BushmillsGlobal.
