Bowmore Distillery has stood on the shores of Loch Indaal, a sea loch that opens out into the Atlantic Ocean, since 1779. The distillery's proximity to the sea plays a vital role in shaping the final character of the spirit, which breathes in the salty sea air all the while it's maturing.
A masterful combination of ripe fruit, dark chocolate and Islay smoke, the Bowmore 18 year old is one of the most remarkable, perfectly balanced malts of its kind. Cosseted away in the finest, hand-selected oak casks and allowed to mature at its own sedate pace, this is one of Bowmore's rarest and most exceptional bottlings.
