Elijah Wood creates headphones from Bushmills whiskey barrels

Elijah Wood and his DJ partner Zach Cowie have created a limited edition line of headphones made from Bushmills Irish whiskey barrels.

The Lord of the Rings actor-turned-DJ created the handmade headphones in partnership with the Diageo-owned distillery and production group Grado Labs.

Crafted in part from the wood used by Bushmills to age its Irish whiskey, the headphones reportedly offer “greater clarity and deeper bass”.

“Working with Bushmills Irish Whiskey on this project enabled Zach and I to take our shared love of music and build upon it,” said Wood. “Between us, Grado, and Bushmills Irish Whiskey, we each have our own aesthetic, and it is so gratifying to see it all come together.”
