Bowmore Decadent Drinks Old Islay Series Single Malt Scotch Whisky 21 Year Old · 2004 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with copper-gold highlights and a warm mahogany glow.

Nose

Fragrant peat smoke mingles with exotic fruits, while a soft sherry sweetness wraps the aroma in warmth. Refined coastal notes—sea spray, salt and mineral brine—lend maritime elegance, lifted by a touch of ash and waxy oak. At natural cask strength, the nose is lush and focused, offering depth without heaviness.

Palate

Peat smoke opens the palate, entwined with bright exotic fruits and citrus. A soft sherry sweetness lingers, supported by refined coastal brine and mineral notes. Rich and mouthfilling without heaviness, it delivers depth with freshness and finesse, leaving a poised, long-lingering finish.

Finish

Long and elegant, the finish blends peat smoke with coastal salt and PX-driven sweetness. Dark fruit—fig and raisin—meets cocoa and treacle, then fades to a refined, warming dryness. A persistent mineral tail echoes Islay shores, leaving a balanced, dignified impression at natural strength.
