Description

This magnificent 27 year old Bowmore single malt was laid to rest in the No. 1 Vaults at the Islay Capital's distillery in 1972 and bottled approximately around the turn of the Millennium. Drawn from cask numbers 4864, 4865 and 4866 at a natural strength 53.3% ABV, this vastly collectible malt is one of just 466 bottles that comes complete with original well kept presentation box. It has a warm, mellow flavour with lots of ripe oak aromas.
