Bowmore Darkest Sherry Cask Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 15 Year Old
Out of stock
Featured in the 1001 whiskies you must try before you die book.
The battle between Peat and Oloroso in this Bowmore darkest cask is won very much by the Sherry and one of my favourite of The Bowmore range with a healthy three years spent in Oloroso sherry casks after initial ex-bourbon cask ageing.
