Bowmore 31 Year (Signatory, 1968)
$2,114.99
Distilled in 1968 at Bowmore distillery in Islay, this expression was bottled at 43% in 1999 by Signatory. On the nose, it’s typically Bowmore; sweet and fruity – with notes of pineapple, mango and peach – followed by vanilla spice.
Taking a sip, you’re hit by the tropical fruitiness, followed by a hit of peat and curd. Once the peat calms down, you get a hint of caramel and dry oak followed by a long, oaky finish with hints of vanilla.
It’s a typical Bowmore: nothing too showy, but hits all the right notes.
