Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
짙은 황금빛이 잔 속에서 따뜻하게 일렁인다. 1992년 보모어가 채워 스물한 해를 보낸 이 아일라 몰트는 49.6도에서 균형을 잘 잡고 있다. 부드러운 피트 연기 사이로 잘 익은 열대 과일과 꿀, 옅은 바다 내음이 피어오른다. 시간이 지날수록 망고와 패션프루트의 단내가 짙어진다. 한 모금이 입을 채우면 열대 과일과 꿀, 은은한 훈연이 매끄럽게 어우러진다. 달콤한 연기가 길게 이어지며 마무리된다.

air Nose
as always with old bottles of Bowmore, this baby's got to breathe a little bit before the diamond is freed from its gangue. … zzz … zzz … There, the much anticipated and expected mangos… And the passion fruits … And the pink grapefruits … and this very delicate tobacco smoke … and these earths, leaves, tobaccos, mushrooms, precious liqueurs, kumquats, then pot-pourri, patchouli, ylang-ylang (very 1960s Bowmore)… Then soups, marrow quenelles, bouillons, ceps, even wee touches of lamb chorba (really!) The thing is, these Bowmores just never stop unfolding; they are the most fractal whiskies you could ever think of. And there, some Linzertorte! With water: emphasis on citrus. Grapefruits, citrons, clementines, oranges… Plus all the smaller ones that all chefs are currently adding to their food
restaurant Palate
bam, a lorryload of stewed tropical fruits. That's it, and that's a lot. As much as the nose never stopped evolving, this palate is immediate, almost instantaneous, and stunning. Grapefruits, maracuja, mangos, hints of pineapple and basta. With water: no, it needed that drop of water to burst into myriads of fruits. We shall not list them all, but citrus first, then small berries (even taxus – without the seeds, naturally), then Szechuan pepper and assorted 'sweeter' spices. It is even refreshing, you could quaff this whenever you're a little thirsty
timer Finish
medium and just immaculately fruity. I'm sure there are many fruits in there we haven't even heard of. Small berries from remote valleys high in the Himalayas or the in the Andes
