Product Description
One of a trio of released from the legendary Bowmore distillery on the Isle of Islay, showing off how wine-cask finishes interact with their smoky, coastal single malt. For the 18 year old expression, they began with maturing the whisky in ex-bourbon barrels for 13 years - following that, the whisky was transferred over to casks that previously held Manzanilla Sherry for the remaining 5 years.
Nose: Smoky molasses, spiced orange and mulled wine. A touch sea air sticks around.
Palate: Thick and rich with plenty of dried fruit and robust peat smoke. Slightly herbaceous at points, too.
Finish: Citrus oil remains on the finish.
