- Description
- Bowmore's Tempest Batch 3 is a 10-year-old cask-strength release (55.6% ABV) aged exclusively in first-fill bourbon casks, capturing the distillery's peat character at its most vibrant. Tropical fruitiness emerges, particularly when water is added, providing unexpected brightness alongside the typical maritime smoke. This is an excellent entry point to cask-strength Bowmore for those seeking intensity without excessive wood influence.
