- Description
- Bowmore's February 1968 distillate, aged 34 years in cask #1421, represents a golden era for this Islay distillery when tropical fruit and peat smoke were in perfect balance. Only 230 bottles were drawn at 43.3%, capturing the mature complexity of mid-century Bowmore at natural cask strength. This is a historical whisky that rewards patient exploration of how Islay character evolves across decades.
