Elements of Islay Bw8 51.2% 50cl
A multi-layered Bowmore is a vatting of whiskies distilled between 2001 and 2003. Left to rest and age in ex-bourbon barrels and ex-sherry butts for 16 to 18 years, it showcases its classic and true Islay character through a window of tropical fruits and coastal freshness. Overall you will find citrus, tropical fruits, coastal brine and smoke. The nose showcases grapefruit mixed amongst notes of brown sugar. A hint of charcoal smoke with baked lemons that develop into a richer, more pronounced tropical note of under-ripe mango! The palate is old-fashioned chocolate limes. Citrus and salt blend perfectly together and form a rather rich fruit note of papaya and kiwi. The finish is dry, herby and the finish lingers with a wave of kiln smoke. Only 1320 bottles produced!
Highland Park 18 Year Old
This has got to be one of the most complete single malts. It is beautifully balanced, complex with lovely fruity flavours, wood and a hint of smoke on the finish. A long soft finish that goes on and on.
