BOWMORE 1988
A truly awesome Bowmore edition, The 1988 Bowmore is a perfect example of how good a mature Bourbon whiskey can be.
- Edition released exclusively for traveling retail.
An amazing release from Bowmore, one of their best official bottled products ever. The Vintage version was distilled in 1988 and spent almost 30 years maturing in a barrel to create a harmonious flavor. For this classic whiskey, they chose First Fill Ex Bourbon barrels in American white oak, allowed to be stored and aged under the supervision of Bowmore staff until the final whiskey is bottled in 2017. Bowmore 1988 is considered as one of the mature whiskeys in the first barrel of bourbon and was released exclusively in 2017 in travel retail.
Despite aging, this Bowmore retains its traditional peat flavor. Each bottle is bottled at a concentration of 47.8% ABV, with a volume of 700ml.
- Delicate and elegant taste.
Distilled in 1988 and aged for about 30 years, this whiskey is quite different from the Bowmore that has matured in a regular sherry barrel. 1988 Bowmore shows elegant notes and rays of sea.
Bowmore contains aromas of delicate spices and is reminiscent of sweet creamy notes with elegant citrus notes. In the palate the flavors of Bourbon Casks come back even more prominently after a long storage period and are accompanied by great flavors of lemongrass, ginger and jasmine. Mango panacotta is also found in taste. The highlight that ends the chain of flavors is Bowmore 1988, which lingers in the mouth for a long time, leaving a rich fruity note.
