Review by Bowmore

Colour

Burnt amber

Nose

Redcurrant jam, camphor oil and cherry pie intermingle with earthy smoke

Palate

Tropical fruits such as papaya and mango and a honeyed sweetness with the addition of water

Finish

Oak spiced smoke and rich dark chocolate with a hint of salt

Note

As the world’s oldest scotch maturation house, Bowmore’s legendary No.1 Vaults is the birthplace of coveted and collectable whiskies including the new Vintner’s Trilogy. The second in the trilogy, Bowmore 26 Year Old Wine Matured spends time in ex-bourbon barrels and wine barriques, developing a burnt amber colour.
