Product description

Product description
Bowmore's Single Malts are moderately smoky by Islay standards at around 35 ppm. The use of sherry casks also gives the bottlings a complex and fruity character. The distillery itself describes this whisky not only as its well-known standard bottling but also as 'vanilla ice cream by the campfire'.

Aroma: Sherry Peat Smoke Fruit Sweet

Geschmack: vollmundig und angenehm im Mundraum

Abgang: lang anhaltend und recht mild im Rauch

Kommentar:
bisher absolut passendes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis;
die aktuelle Preiserhöhung um 8 Euro wegen ´neuem Design´ bei unverändertem Single Malt Produkt ist aus meiner Sicht nicht nachvollziehbar.
