Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep, sun-kissed amber with copper-gold highlights and a warm sherry-bronze glow.
Nose
Bowmore's signature Islay smoke unfurls in a bold, iodine-laced aroma carried on a saline sea breeze. Peat is rich and assertive, yet velvet, with toffee, honey and vanilla peeking through. Orange zest and dried fruit lend warmth, while subtle ash and mineral undertones, plus a whisper of charred oak, keep the perfume bright and coastal.
Palate
Powerful, peated up front with maritime salt and iodine, swelling into sherry-tinged sweetness. Dried fig and dark chocolate fold into citrus zest and vanilla, while oak spice adds length. The finish is long and smoke-forward, carrying pepper, almond, and a saline coastal note that lingers.
Finish
Relentless peat and maritime brine drive a long, seafaring finish. Smoke lingers with iodine and sea salt, unveiling dark chocolate, fig, and warm spice; the sherry-cask influence threads in cocoa and dried fruit, while the cask-strength warmth leaves a resinous, tobacco-tinged fade.
