Reflecting the essence and heart of the Bowmore range – thrashing waves, windswept landscapes, and generations of tradition – our 12 years old is both complex and perfectly balanced.

Tasting's Notes
Aromas of Coastal smoke and ash soon make way for bergamot, orange zest, lemon slices, and some hay before becoming rather floral, heather smoke now competing with the ash. On the palate hints of Lovely and rounded, honeyed even, initially Vanilla, perfumed smoke, and coastal elements develop Dark Peat, Blossom, oily sweetness. Lasting notes of Smoky, Seaspray, dry grass, a touch of ash and citrus.
