This Bowmore single malt underwent a patient maturation of 26 years in a single refill Oloroso sherry butt and was bottled at its natural cask strength, with no chill-filtration or artificial colouring, by Adelphi. Limited to just 507 bottles, it presents aromas of raspberry jam, camphor oil, and cherry pie on the nose, intertwining with hints of mango, honey, and smoked dark chocolate.

Bowmore is one of the oldest distilleries on Islay and the first on the island to receive a license. Officially founded in 1779 by local merchant David Simpson, it's likely that illicit distilling had been taking place for some years on the same site. The distillery had a number of different owners over the years, passing to Stanley Morrison in the mid 60s before being purchased by Beam Suntory in 1994.
The distillery has bottled some of the world's most desirable single malts over the years including the widely acclaimed White, Black and Gold Bowmore editions. Across the range, the spirit is characterised by a rich smoky character with hints of tropical fruit and ocean spray.
