The expanded agreement will also see Bushmills serve as the official whiskey of PGA Tour Champions.

In its new role, Bushmills will launch a national retail suite, a digital campaign, branded onsite activations, and consumer sweepstakes to win PGA Tour rewards. It will also have an onsite whiskey bar at tour events.

Maestro Dobel became the inaugural official tequila of the PGA Tour and PGA Tour Champions in 2021. The brand also recently announced a multi-year agreement with 11-time PGA Tour winner Jon Rahm.

Lander Otegui, senior vice president for marketing at Proximo Spirits, said: “Having doubled in size over the past 10 years, the Irish whiskey category continues to attract new drinkers who are looking for more premium single malt offerings … As an official marketing partner [of the PGA Tour] for the next four years, Bushmills will be able to share our award-winning single malts and beloved Irish coffees on the course with a new dedicated fanbase.”
