Bowmore - founded in 1779 - is the oldest operating distillery on the island of Islay and its spirit has always been characterised by a gentle peat and an intrinsic marine soul, given that its warehouses are lashed by the Atlantic waves that creep into the gulf known as Loch Indaal. Furthermore, Bowmore was the first distillery to receive an official visit from Queen Elizabeth II.
This 2000s bottling (later replaced by the 17-year-old 'White sands') is characterised by a fascinating combination of fruity and tropical notes, floral nuances and a gentle, understated, coastal peat.
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.
