- Description
- Bowmore's sherry-matured powerhouse, aged since 2001 in butts and bottled by Elixir Distillers at 53.2% ABV, layers creamy texture over complex maritime and dried-fruit complexity. Smoke from peat meets rich sherry sweetness alongside notes of mango, raisin, toffee and briny coastal minerality. Essential drinking for those seeking Islay's darker, more indulgent character.
