Bowmore 19 Years Old Pinot Noir Cask Finish Islay Single Malt 43% Vol. 0,7l in Giftbox

The Bowmore 19 Years Old Pinot Noir Cask Finish is an exceptional bottling from the renowned Travel Exclusive Series of the traditional Bowmore Distillery on Islay. This exclusive edition combines Bowmore's classic, maritime house style with the elegant depth of selected Pinot Noir wine casks from Burgundy. The distillery, founded in 1779 and thus one of the oldest in Scotland, stands for finely balanced Islay whisky with a subtle smokiness and complex structure.

This Islay single malt initially matured for many years in ex-bourbon casks made from American oak before being given an expressive finish in Pinot Noir barriques. This special post-maturing process gives the whisky additional depth, finely integrated fruit notes and an elegant, slightly vinous dimension. Bottled at 43%, this bottling is harmonious, multi-layered and full of character. As a Travel Exclusive, it is only available in travel retail and is aimed at connoisseurs who are looking for special cask maturations and limited Bowmore interpretations. 

Tasting notes:

Color: Light plum red.

Nose: Chopped pistachios, manuka honey and green apples, accompanied by subtle citrus notes.

Taste: Green apples and honey dominate, complemented by creamy brioche and a fine sugar note.

Finish: Deep and balanced with dried fruit and a gentle, elegant cloud of peat smoke.

The Bowmore 19 Years Old Pinot Noir Cask Finish is ideal for pure enjoyment to fully appreciate the balance of fruit, wood and subtle smokiness. It is particularly harmonious with dark chocolate with a high cocoa content, roasted nuts or fine hard cheese. This Islay single malt also impresses as a quiet companion for special moments with its long-lasting, elegant aroma and exceptional cask combination.
