A fabulous Islay Festival bottling from the iconic Islay stalwart, Bowmore Fèis Ìle 2017 11 Years is a harmonious (and delicious) marriage of oloroso sherry and Bordeaux wine casks. This distillery-exclusive is packed with big fruit notes and was one of a trio of highly sought-after expressions released for this year's Fèis Ìle whisky extravaganza.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Big wine notes, stewed plums and dates, nutty with a wisp of smoke.
Jammy and woody. Blackberry jam on toast. A gentle smoke in with all the fruit.
Long and balanced with that wood-fruit-smoke trinity.
Juicy and delicious – Islay at its best.
