Bowmore Celebrating 40 Years Of Success Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 11 Year Old · 1995 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with coppery highlights and a mahogany halo; a burnished gold glow that shimmers in the glass.

Nose

Maritime peat and sea-salt rise first, carried on brisk citrus zest. A subtle sherry-tinged sweetness follows, with fig and raisin and a veil of toffee and vanilla. The smoke stays refined and integrated, leaving a coastal, sun-warmed aroma that hints at depth to come.

Palate

Silky, medium-bodied palate with gentle peat and maritime salt, backed by polished oak. Ripe toffee and dried fig mingle with raisin and dark chocolate, while orange zest adds brightness. Subtle sherry sweetness threads through the smoke, culminating in a long, warm finish with a delicate ash and spice echo.

Finish

Long, coastal smoke lingers, wrapped in sea-salted peat. Sherry richness threads through toasted oak, with dried-fruit sweetness lingering before a warm, peppery fade.
