Bowmore Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Experience the raw essence of Bowmore with this 12 Year Old Islay single malt whisky. With a global reputation as a perfectly balanced Islay single malt whisky, this is the signature expression of the historic distillery's house style. Wonderfully complex, with a long and mellow finish, Bowmore 12 tastes like heather honey sharpened by lemon zest. It is all underpinned by peat smoke to create a flavour that could be described as "vanilla ice cream at a beach bonfire". Savour it neat, add an ice cube or team it with seafood -- this 12 Year Old pairs extremely well with oysters. With its long and fascinating history as the original Islay malt, Bowmore is made according to the old whisky-making traditions created over 240 years ago when the distillery was born. The barley is still carefully smoked in Bowmore's proprietary malt barns, and hand-turned regularly. This is what gives this single malt its distinctive mild smoky taste. Bowmore 12 Year Old whisky is left to rest in some of the the finest ex-bourbon barrels. Each sip evokes the rugged land of Islay with its thrashing waves, windswept landscapes and generations of tradition. The Bowmore distillery has sat on the island's shores since 1779, just off the west coast of Scotland. Over the years, this expression of the whisky has won numerous awards: including Gold medals at San Francisco World Spirits Competition and Trophy and Gold at the International Spirit Challenge.

For over 240 years, Bowmore distillery has stood on the shores of Lochindaal, home to the legendary No.1 Vaults and the mysterious alchemy within. We are more than an Islay distillery--we are the first licensed distillery here. From the careful and intentional ethos at the heart of the Bowmore distillery, every step and stage of the process is considered. Taking traditional techniques and uniting them with creative vision we can ensure that each component plays its part. From floor maltings and peat smoke drying, to the long fermentation and slow distillation, the result of this precise and measured approach can be seen in the distinct flavours that Bowmore is famous for. Every bottle of Bowmore celebrates our ability to mature with excellence, aging like no other to capture the definitive expressive character of Bowmore. Our spirit evolves perfectly in cask, creating an enviable inventory of maturing stock and enabling an iconic archive of releases.
