描述
Another beautiful bottling from one of Scotland’s oldest distilleries, Bowmore on the Isle of Islay. This bottling is named “Golden and Elegant”, a reference to the colour and flavours of the single malt. The whisky was first launched in 2017.
Aged for 15 years, this whisky pairs the vanilla rich and sweet flavours of first fill former Bourbon American oak casks, with the powerful peat reek for which Bowmore is well known. Drinkers should expect additional, slightly floral aromas, and hints of toasted nuts. This whisky is bottled 43% ABV, giving the flavours a slight boost.
This is a big one litre bottling, offering superb flavour for money.
使用了初填波本桶和豬頭桶組合的做法令人耳目一新，具體獨特而振奮的特質。經過波摩酒廠赫赫有名的No.1 Vaults(1號酒窖)15年的完美熟陳，此款金黃大麥色威士忌散發出清爽的泥煤煙燻和柑橘味。
品飲注記
香氣：奢享蜂蜜、阿馬爾菲檸檬、甜煙葉和西西里金色甜點。
口感：絲綢柑橘、咸甜香草和蜂窩。
余味：品嘗泥碳煙、甜杏仁和悠長檸檬香。
酒廠簡介：
劃過艾雷島中央的英達爾灣(Lochlndaal)區域，有座名為波摩的小型港鎮，蒸餾廠位於該港鎮附近。Bowmore在蓋爾語中為【大型岩礁】之意。蒸餾廠是當地商人辛普森(John Simpson)於一七七九年所創設，也是艾雷島上歷史最攸久的蒸餾廠。據說當地刮強風時，海浪甚至會打上屋頂，使得原本位於海邊的熟成庫房會沒入海中一公尺左右。造酒用水來自拉根河(River Laggan)，是流經泥煤層而帶有濃厚色澤的水。此外，波摩也是目前採行地板發芽的幾間酒廠之一。燃燒泥煤增添香氣時會選用發芽程度適中的麥芽，而其煙燻香氣在艾雷島威士忌中則屬中等，使用流經泥煤層的水源與燃燒泥煤，並吸收了海潮鹽香的熟成酒，很適合作為艾雷島威士忌的入門款。
產地：Scotland,Islay
