Bowmore – 1972 27 Year Old (70cl, 53.3%)

Bowmore – 1972 27 Year Old is a whisky from Bowmore (Islay). Aged 27 years, bottled at 53.3% ABV, 70cl. Surely there are few locations more evocative than the shores of Lochindaal, an area positively steeped in rich Scottish folklore. It’s no wonder then that Bowmore has a whiff of magic about it (or perhaps that’s just the whisky). The oldest distillery on Islay, Bowmore still retains its own floor maltings, and while they can no longer meet all of the busy distillery’s requirements, they still contribute a third of the malt used in every mash. Just because something is old, doesn’t mean it’s old-fashioned, and Bowmore’s eco friendly heat recovery system not only cuts down on those pesky bills, it also heats the town swimming pool! This impressive vintage from Bowmore has been aged in the world famous No. 1 Vaults on the shores of Loch Indaal for 27 years, slowly maturing into the perfect dram on offer today.
