Bowmore 12

Bowmore 12 is the heart of the Bowmore range, the 12-year-old exhibits some beautiful coastal notes with a gentle peat. The floral element presents has a great balance that makes this a great entry bottling for Bowmore.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Coastal smoke and ash soon make way for bergamot, orange zest, lemon slices and some hay before becoming rather floral, heather smoke now competing with the ash.
Palate: Lovely and rounded, honeyed even, initially. Vanilla, perfumed smoke and coastal elements develop. Dark Peat. Blossom, oily sweetness.
Finish: Smoky and long. Seaspray, dry grass, a touch of ash and citrus.
Overall: Classic stuff and the heart of the Bowmore range. Smoky, fruity, coastal, delicious.

A really nice introduction to Islay whisky, one of the first i tried and will always come back to. Nice and light on the peat balanced with a rich vanilla goodness. Love this whisky.
