Bowmore Distillery is located on the embankment of the Loch Indaal River, in the heart of the city of Bowmore (which means big cliff). Some characteristic traits of their single malt whiskies are in fact smoking, salinity and seaweed notes, which create a perfect combination.
It was John Simpson who started the business in 1779, making Bowmore the oldest legal distillery in Islay. Now owned by the Japanese company Company Santoro, Bowmore is one of the last 3 distilleries that remained active on the region and, as then, is equipped with a malt floor.
Distillates have different alcoholpercentages. So, we have defined a parameter allowing you to better understand and compare different prices. This parameter is calculated by dividing the bottle price by the alcohol content. The alcohol content (or strength) is the amount of pure alcohol (ethanol) contained in the distillate.
This parameter indicates the price of a single 4cl dosage of distillate. It is calculated by dividing the price of the bottle by its quantity (expressed in cl), then multiplying by the centilitres of the recommended single dose, as average in cocktail recipes.
