Originally released for the Travel Retail market, this 10 year old Bowmore single malt is a marriage of Spanish oak Sherry casks and hogsheads, resulting in a fine balance between classic coastal Islay smoke and Sherried sweetness.
Nasty colour, immediately gives away the E150. The fact that they had to put "Dark & intense"on the bottle says something about the drink - it is definitely not dark and not intense without the added enhancers. Nose: Slightly smoky and peaty, sweet caramel, orange & cloves, fresh alcohol. You really have to dig out the aromas, adding water and letting it sit helps a lot. 3/5 Taste: Tastes like artificial sweeteners - not good and definitely not pleasant. Burnt caramel, bitter aftertaste, hints of wormwood, just a SMALL hint of walnut. Extremely overpowering young spirit taste throughout. And what a dissapointment - no smoke or peat whatsoever! it's from Islay and is being marketed as smokey... 1/5 Finish: Fast finish, oily mouthfeel, not pleasant artificial sweetener lingering in the background. 1/5 Summary: Disappointment. It's young, bland, generic and artificial tasting. There are far better whiskeys out there, don't waste your time on this.
Not bad but nothing special. No long.
Bought a bottle in tenerife (litre) €28 very good whisky, but not as good as bowmore surf
Always liked Bowmore, no exception here. I would say it's how the company describes it. If you favor Islay scotch you will like it.
Very intense caramel flavor, can not tell what weird taste is about this looks-tasty whisky, so regret to get this rubbish whisky.
