- Description
- Bowmore's fourth Tempest release (55.1% ABV) showcases the distillery's core character through first-fill bourbon cask maturation at its purest expression. At 10 years old and bottled at cask strength, this vatting displays full flavor development without excessive wood saturation, delivering a textbook example of young, vigorous Islay peat whisky. This suits those seeking unadulterated Bowmore character at high proof.
