Een vat sterkte release van de distilleerderij Islay, Bowmore. Deze `Claret` afwerking whisky heeft gerijpt is 16 jaar, met een finish in een Bordeaux wijn vat - het label emblazoned, dienovereenkomstig, met een tros druiven.

Intensive, dunkle Fruchtsueße und Butter. Leder und Tabak. Wenig, aber angenehm aromatischer Rauch. Austern und etwas Salz. Dazu eine Note die mich an Make-Up erinnert (Puder, kann aber auch was anderes sein. Kenn mich da nicht so aus ;-). Der Alkohol ist kaum sp

Kräftiger, auf Anhieb fruchtigsueßer Antritt mit viel Leder, Tabak und Austern. Oelig, voll und schwer. Rauch nur ganz leicht sp

Finish

Viiiiel Frucht und Leder. Intensiv wärmend mit etwas aromatischen Rauch und Austern.

Comments

Hat mich vom ersten Moment an umgehauen! Bisher mein absoluter Lieblings-Bowmore (jedoch dicht gefolgt vom Darkest). Insgesamt etwas Wasserscheu, lässt sich gut in Fassstaerke trinken.

Color

Auburn

Nose

Aromas of ripe red berries, grapes, plums, salt and caramel with undertones of peat and smoke

Taste

Rich, sweet flavor of mainly red fruit, smoke, peat and sea salt with subtle notes of plums, grapes, tannins, blueberry, caramel and marzipan. Dry, oily, complex but balanced quality!

Finish

Long, flavorful aftertaste of currant and smoke

With an initial maturity of 6 years in bourbon barrels, then an additional aging of 10 years in Bordeaux wine casks. A combination of quality and taste as a result, the classic Bowmore flavors of peat, smoke and red fruit are complemented with delicious notes include grapes, caramel and marzipan. The long and lingering aftertaste of smoke does honor to the great flavors, a delicious whisky without a doubt!

Single dram note: alcohol sticks out a bit, (caramel-grape) syrup, cinnamon, wood, caramel,
W water less spirity but turns a bit cardboardy

Remember - whisky scores and impressions are highly subjective and situational by nature - so don't go and buy whisky according to someone else's taste...
