Description
Bowmore 22 Year Old Aston Martin Masters’ Selection Edition 2
Part of the Masters’ Selection Series from Bowmore, this Limited Edition 22 Year Old Single Malt is Edition No 2, another collaboration between Islay’s Bowmore distillery and Aston Martin.
Bowmore’s Master Blender Ron Welsh and Aston Martin’s Chief Creative Officer Marek Reichman chose a blend of whisky matured in American oak ex-bourbon hogsheads and European oak sherry butts, utilising whisky distilled in both 1997 and 2000 respectively, and finished in Tawny Port casks.
   Nose:   Sweet and fruity notes of heather honey, vanilla with subtle cherries and lychees, combined with a floral character and a hint of eucalyptus. Oak spices, liquorice and fresh tobacco leaves with a smooth touch of aniseed and mint.
   Taste:   Rich sweet and malty spice notes of vanilla fudge, golden syrup and butterscotch, blend with thyme and white pepper, giving way to woody notes of dry oak, hazelnut, Demerara sugar, maple syrup, and dates.
   Finish:  Sweet and woody with notes of liquorice sticks deliver a spicy mouthfeel and a touch of peat smoke.
