This 10-year-old Bowmore, bottled by Douglas Laing in their Old Particular series, is a classic Islay single cask with a distinct and authentic character. Distilled in July 2014 and bottled in March 2025, this whisky is presented without chill filtration and without added coloring, thus fully preserving its pure character.
With an alcohol percentage of 48.4% and originating from a refill cask, this expression is primarily about balance and distillate. Bowmore's distinctive style is beautifully showcased here: an interplay of soft smoke, maritime influences, and a subtle sweetness, supported by light spicy and toasted notes.
An accessible yet layered Islay whisky that appeals to both the novice enthusiast and the seasoned drinker.
