Bowmore 31 Year (Signatory, 1968)
$2,114.99
Distilled in 1968 at Bowmore distillery in Islay, this expression was bottled at 43% in 1999 by Signatory. On the nose, it’s typically Bowmore; sweet and fruity – with notes of pineapple, mango and peach – followed by vanilla spice.
Taking a sip, you’re hit by the tropical fruitiness, followed by a hit of peat and curd. Once the peat calms down, you get a hint of caramel and dry oak followed by a long, oaky finish with hints of vanilla.
It’s a typical Bowmore: nothing too showy, but hits all the right notes.

This Islay distillery sits on the shore of Loch Indaal in the centre of the town of Bowmore from which the distillery takes its name .Bowmore is also distinguished for producing the oldest ever Islay malt, being a 1957 malt bottled at 54 years old in a crystal decanter with a price tag of around the $125,000 mark.
