Bowmore Mariner Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky (Old Bottling) (1 Litre) 15 Year Old

Colour

Deep amber with a copper-gold glow and mahogany-tinted edges.

Nose

Sea-salt, coastal iodine and wisps of peat smoke rise from the glass, braided with honeyed vanilla and soft toffee. Dried citrus zest and orchard fruit lift the nose, while sherry warmth hints cacao, leather and oak. A refined maritime peat unfolds with evolving depth and a lingering, warm finish.

Palate

Velvety, medium-bodied palate with buoyant peat smoke drifting over briny sea-air. Rich sherry sweetness unfolds into dried fig, plum and cocoa, intertwined with orange zest and toasted oak. The peat remains poised—slightly medicinal but refined—leading to a long maritime finish of salt, ash and subtle spice.

Finish

Long, coastal finish: peat smoke and sea-salt endure, tempered by rich sherry sweetness. Dried cherry, cocoa and spice unfold on the palate, with vanilla and oak notes, fading to a warm, briny whisper that lingers gracefully.
