Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with coppery highlights and a touch of mahogany, glowing with wine-kissed warmth.
Nose
Ripe dark fruits—plum, blackberry, and fig—rise alongside Bowmore’s coastal peat and sea spray. Bordeaux finish lends subtle red-wine sweetness, vanilla and cocoa, with hints of clove and cinnamon. A cedar undertone and a whisper of tobacco weave through a saline, smoky core.
Palate
On the palate, a silky, medium-bodied profile layers ripe dark fruit—plum and blackberry—kissed by Bordeaux cask sweetness. Gentle spice—clove and black pepper—rises with coastal peat and a light smoke, lending a saline lift. The wine influence softly tames tannins into a refined, velvety texture, finishing long with a harmonious balance of fruit, spice, and smoke.
Finish
Long, refined finish where smoky, maritime peat mingles with ripe Bordeaux fruit. Deep red-berry notes—plum, cassis—with a kiss of wine tannin and gentle spice evolve into a lingering, oak-dusted warmth.
