BOWMORE 1964 35 YEAR OLD
Surely there are few locations more evocative than the shores of Lochindaal, an area positively steeped in rich Scottish folklore. It’s no wonder then that Bowmore has a whiff of magic about it (or perhaps that’s just the whisky). The oldest distillery on Islay, Bowmore still retains its own floor maltings, and while they can no longer meet all of the busy distillery’s requirements, they still contribute a third of the malt used in every mash. It was also here that the Bowmore of the 1960s was rated as the best of the famous casks for all its specialties, Bowmore 1964 35 years.

- Unique taste.
After nearly four decades of maturing in hand-selected oak barrels, the Bowmore spirit has been infused with great aroma and deliciousness. What makes Bowmore 35 years most impressive is the process of creating the taste of wine when enjoyed. The 35-year-old Bowmore is considered to be the best of the famous barrels for its taste because all the flavors are special.
The impression of this unique drink is the warmth, lightness and mellowness of its creators. The faint, mild tropical fruit flavor combined with peat flavor, the salty and humid aroma of sea salt, is characteristic of the number 1 cellar at Bowmore distillery. The taste stays on the palate long after enjoying. This is what we all would expect from old whiskeys.
