Living Souls

Bowmore 22 Years Old

ABV: 52% 70 cL

This single malt was distilled at the Bowmore Distillery on the Isle of Islay and aged for 22 years in first-fill bourbon barrels, resulting in a creamy malt that brings to mind a seaside ice cream parlour, where warm sugar drifts through the air. A rich, playful and quietly decadent dram not often seen in the independent scene. 

Bottled by Living Souls without chill-filtration or artificial colouring by Living Souls. 

Nose

Opens with banoffee pie, banana ice cream and custard, lifted by a touch off salinity and soft smoke.

Palate

Burnt sugar, cream soda and smoky sweetness.

Finish

A long, warm finish. Rich, Playful and quietly decadent.

£163.00

The Bowmore Distillery was granted its license to operate in 1779, making it the first legal distillery on the Isle of Islay and the second one in Scotland. However, historical records suggest that the founder of Bowmore, David Simpson, had been distilling in Bowmore for over a decade prior to the granting of the license. Bowmore Distillery survived many ups and downs, but the whisky was produced continuously until 1940 when RAF coastal command commandeered the distillery to help with the efforts. The distillery was reopened soon after. Currently, the Bowmore distillery is part of the Beam Suntory portfolio.
