Bowmore 12 Yrs 750ml - Item Code: 05774
Discover Bowmore 12 Yrs 750ml:
Wine Enthusiast – “The opening smell is shamelessly saline, with peat, sea salt, and salted focaccia; time in the glass brings up a refined Sherry scent. It’s lean, unexpectedly sweet, and resinous in the mouth. Ends with a piney, resinous, mildly salty, fruity finish.”

Scotch whiskey, a distinguished spirit originating from Scotland, is primarily made from malted barley for single malts and grains for blended varieties. This iconic drink undergoes a meticulous distillation process using pot stills for single malts and column stills for grain whiskies, followed by an aging period of at least three years in oak casks, often previously used for bourbon or sherry. The result is a diverse range of flavors and aromas that reflect the unique characteristics of its regions of origin.
Single malt Scotch typically boasts rich and complex flavors with notes of fruit, spice, smoke, peat, and oak, while blended Scotch offers a smoother profile with balanced hints of caramel, vanilla, and light smoke. The texture can vary significantly—from smooth and creamy to rich and oily—depending on the style. Scotch whiskey is versatile in its consumption; it can be enjoyed neat or on the rocks and serves as a key ingredient in classic cocktails like the Rob Roy or Blood & Sand.
