Bowmore Appellations Collection 14 year old Bordeaux Cask Finished, 43%

Matured in bourbon barrels and finished in Bordeaux red wine barriques, the nose opens with peppery smoke, dry earthiness, bramble, black cherry, lilies, and dried vine fruit. It carries a confident firm fruitiness on the palate, with red apple, red gummies, cherry, and upfront peppery notes, revealing a supple texture with hints of sea salt and beach bonfire smoke. The finish is delicious with bitter dark chocolate truffle. (Travel Retail exclusive; Release date: 8/24)
