- Description
- This 2023 collaboration between Bowmore's master blender Ron Welsh and Aston Martin's design team was matured 22 years in American oak and ex-oloroso sherry casks. The nose carries heather, honey, cherry, and lychee alongside tobacco leaf and aniseed—a more perfumed and floral profile than typical Bowmore. The palate balances these delicate aromatics with the structure that two decades in quality wood provides. A refined pour for those drawn to Islay whisky's softer, more elegant expressions.
