Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep gold
air Nose
Silky green and tropical fruits wrapped up in sea air, beach sand and kelp. It’s one of these early 1990s Bowmores which harks back to an earlier, fruitier era. The fruits intensify with lemon oils, guava, passion fruit and mango puree. This saltiness in the background keeps everything pin sharp and in check as well. A little ripe melon, some pink grapefruit and coal dust as well. Straightforward but beautiful
restaurant Palate
biting wood spice but also that tropical aspect is carried forward with distinction. Lots of ripe mango, kiwi, passion fruit and guava. The fruits are rather syrupy in texture with these lovely tertiary notes of olive oil, natural vanilla, elegant peat smoke, some wild herbs and sandalwood. Also more medicinal with time, all on bandages and ointment
timer Finish
Long, getting peatier and saltier with notes of brine and some smoked fish. What sweetness form the wood there was on the palate really dies away leaving a wonderfully dry and sharp, fruity finale
