A single malt Bowmore bottled as Bw8 by Elements of Islay, at 51.2% in a 50cl bottle. It is a vatting of whiskies distilled between 2001 and 2003, aged for 16 to 18 years in ex-bourbon barrels and ex-sherry butts. The release was 1320 bottles. The nose brings grapefruit with brown sugar, a hint of charcoal smoke and baked lemons, developing into under-ripe mango. The palate recalls old-fashioned chocolate limes, with citrus and salt leading to papaya and kiwi. The finish is dry and herby, with kiln smoke lingering.

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.
