Ruby Port cask finish
Bowmore 16 Year Old is an Islay single malt bottled at 43%, without chill-filtration or added colour. It matured in American ex-bourbon casks and in European oak that previously held sherry, then was finished in hand-picked Ruby Port casks from the Douro Valley. The finish brings dark berries and chocolate alongside spicy oak, with the maritime and gently peaty character of Bowmore, a distillery on the shore of Loch Indaal since 1779. On the nose it is described as seaweed and sea salt with fine wood smoke.

About Glenbotal

The idea of Glenbotal came to us naturally: as whisky lovers, we were always on the lookout for new experiences in the whisky world. That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from ballots and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
