Welcome to Bowmore
Soundclip
Bowmore is one of the oldest and most prestigious distilleries in all of
Scotland -- and producer of one of the world's broadest and most
distinctive range of Single Malt Scotch Whiskies -- Bowmore Distillery has
been perched boldly at the edge of the rugged Hebridean Island of Islay
since 1779.
Bowmore's location on this dramatic, wind-swept isle has been integral in
determining the legendary smoky, rich character of the fine Single Malt
Scotch Whiskies it crafts.
Nose
Soft, gentle, sooty smokiness.
Palate
Textured, lightly toffeeish. Fruity. Interplay of brown-sugar sweetness and tar-like dryness.
Finish
Peaty, leafy, reedy. A certain sandy grittiness.
Comment
Wood finishes are still fun and may recruit new enthusiasts for malt. Dawn, Dusk, Voyager ... this is becoming confusing. Of those three (Port, Bordeaux and Port again), Dawn seems the lightest all-round.
