Sherry Oak Collection

It’s official. The Bowmore 21 Year Old Sherry Oak Cask has taken the top prize at the 2026 World Whiskies Awards. This isn't just a bottle; it’s the definitive single malt of the year.


Expertly aged for over two decades and finished in first-fill Pedro Ximénez casks, this expression perfectly balances Bowmore’s signature Islay peat with a rich, velvety sherry sweetness. From notes of ginger and manuka honey to a lingering, salty-sweet finish, this is a masterpiece at the height of its powers.
