Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

a little bacony, then lemony and seawatery, with perfect peat smoke and peppery seaweed. More or less so. And it’s appropriately kilny. I know, too many barbarisms, but I’m sure you get the idea. Pure unadulterated middle-aged Bowmore. With water: what some call ‘a sweet peat’. Wet fabric, apples, citrons, bonfire, seawater

restaurant Palate

typical. Lemons, tangerines, peat smoke, salt, plus a touch of passion fruit and mango. It’s not the first time that I’m finding ‘echoes’ of the 1960s at Bowmore in recent distillates. Can’t be bad news! With water: perfectly chiselled topical peat

timer Finish

medium, perhaps not totally deep and profound, but these peaty citrons are perfect. Rather salty aftertaste, as often
