Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
a little closed at first – just some banana and some vanilla – but it’s soon to open up, on the 1960’s Bowmores’ main markers: tropical fruits (mainly passion fruit and ripe kiwi) and some very nice ripe gooseberry. Goes on with caramelised apple, old books, curry, and hints of violets. A superb nose, even if quite narrower than the oloroso version’s
restaurant Palate
the attack is much more indefinite, but loads of dried herbs are soon to arrive. Quite peppery, with hints of mustard, and finally some peat. Notes of cold over-infused tea. Goes on with white pepper and vanilla. The finish is very long, on caramel and pepper. Again a great one, but I liked the ‘oloroso’ just a little better. 92 points . Bowmore 37 yo 1964 (49.6%, OB, fino, 300 bottles) This was the first of the series, and was launched in September 2002. The two casks came from the Macharnudo Albariza vineyards
