The first release of the Bowmore 19 Year Old French Oak Barrique, was the first publicly released expression from the Islay based distillery, to use this combination of age and type of cask maturation.

Bowmore 19 Year Old French Oak Barrique, is said to deliver notes of candied apple, honey and light peat smoke on the nose. Followed by notes of rich toffee, wild honey and exotic spices on the palate.

Commenting on the news, David Turner, Bowmore Distillery Manager, said: “We are delighted to be able to bring back a small amount of this unique expression following its initial release last year. We knew we had something special when we bottled it so to have that re-affirmed is great to see. The whisky has been patiently aged for 19 years in French oak barriques to impart a richness of flavour that perfectly marries with the gentle peat that has made Bowmore so famous.”

Bowmore 19 Year Old French Oak Barrique, is now available exclusively from Amazon, for a RRP of £129.00.
