A comparatively recent release from Bowmore, the 18 year old was launched in January of 2007 to replace the 17 year old. A perfumed, fruity offering from the Islay distillery.
Pungent, citrus. Stewing fruit, hints of damp wood and a very soft smoke.
Spirity at first, then gives way to perfume, fruit, plum jam. A good sweetness, peat smoke, grapey.
Seville marmalade, blossom, dark peat.

Really smooth, flavour develops beautifully. Just the right amount of smoke
Smooth, Smokey and peat base Very enjoyable to drink and enjoy.
Beautiful colour, light Smokeyness with a deep thick sweetness. Amazing long, deep finish. An absolutely amazing dram even for those not keen on Islay malt!
I really enjoyed this very easy to drink creamy and rounded single malt Lovely colour nose and finish - not corrosive on the throat at all
Been buying this for a few years after it was suggested to me as a comparison to the highland 18
