Opening chronology
Fresh supplied-copy text and visual locator audit. Sheet 11 attributes the 1608 license directly to Bushmills; sheet 589 distinguishes the regional license from the distillery's later foundation. Medieval origins and early-document claims require corroboration. This checks fidelity to the 2019 source, not present-day truth. The 744-sheet supplied copy has a truncated index.
