Tasting Notes
Tasting Notes
Billy Abbott, The Whisky Exchange
Nose
Rich fruitcake, liquorice sticks and touches of tar to start. The tars to burning peat, with wisps of quickly joined by barbecued apples and a hint of charred mango. With time, the fruit builds. Apple compote and tropical fruit chews appear alongside a touch of creosote and sea-drenched rope.
Palate
Distinctly Bowmore, but with a generous dose of old sherry cask. Sea spray, fruit and flowers are wrapped in raising jam and doused with liquorice and blackcurrant sauce. Tarry notes sit around the edges, balanced by sticky dried fruit: dates and prunes. Smoke is subdued but ever-present: old stoves and distant peat-smoking chimneys.
Finish
Earthy peat, liquorice sticks and a tingle of spice, all slowly fading to leave fruit cake spread with butter and apple jam.
Cara Laing, Douglas Laing
The nose opens immediately with stewed fruits, fallen pears and red apples alongside new leather and wet oak. the palate provides a sherried Islay quality with cured meat, blackcurrants and a rosemary jus. the finish is long with beautiful salty brine, gentle peat and a big fruity finale.

Sherry sweet and little Bowmore performances
This whisky is very popular in Japan. Being a Bowmore sherry, I think it is a very tasty bottle, but enjoy it little by little rather than drinking it right away. I think it will be even better in a few years.
