Tasting Notes

• Nose: A captivating blend of red fruits, honey, and chocolatey oak, underscored by a subtle saline edge and hints of raisin and strawberry.
• Palate: Layers of blackcurrant, plum, and stewed orchard fruits give way to a wave of sea breeze, polished oak, and rich Arabica coffee. Delicate peat smoke and nutty spice add depth.
• Finish: Luxuriously long and smooth, with lingering chocolate, praline sweetness, and a whisper of cinnamon.

Perfect for those seeking a unique whisky experience, this Bowmore release celebrates a harmonious partnership between the rich, fruity notes of French wine casks and the signature maritime influence of Islay.
