The heart of the Bowmore range, the 12 year old exhibits some beautiful coastal notes with a gentle peat, it is the balance that the floral element presents that makes this a great entry bottling for Bowmore.
Coastal smoke and ash soon make way for bergamot, orange zest, lemon slices and some hay before becoming rather floral, heather smoke now competing with the ash.
Lovely and rounded, honeyed even, initially. Vanilla, perfumed smoke and coastal elements develop. Dark Peat. Blossom, oily sweetness.
Smoky and long. Sea spray, dry grass, a touch of ash and citrus.
Classic stuff and the heart of the Bowmore range. Smoky, fruity, coastal, delicious.

I read negative reviews this and wonder what people expect for £25 (Morrison’s). It’s a nice smooth whiskey with a nice earthy salty vanilla and sea aroma. Easy on the palate and very drinkable. Don’t be put off by the negative reviews.
Bland, strong smokiness kills this whisky, not for for your average drinker. Maybe for smokers. Poor for the price. Not recommended.
It's no Lagavulin or Laphroaig which I love but it's definitely one of my favourite islay non the less. Was having a glass the other day and acc tasted olive in it of all things, I think its a very nice whiskey
Interesting smoky smell and initial complex peaty taste let down by a cheap synthetic alcoholic aftertaste. Drinkable.
A well rounded Islay whisky: a bit smokey, a bit medicinal, but doesn't really have a prominent character of its own. Nice to drink.
