Product description
Bowmore 19-Year-Old Pinot Noir Cask Finish is a mature single malt whisky from the island of Islay that combines the classic, slightly peaty style of the Bowmore distillery with the influence of Pinot Noir red wine casks.This edition is aimed at those seeking more complex and unconventional interpretations of peated whiskey.
The whiskey is aged for many years in traditional oak barrels and then finished in barrels that previously held Pinot Noir wine.This additional step lends the spirit a depth of fruitiness, introducing notes of red fruit and a subtle tannic quality that blend harmoniously with Bowmore’s characteristic delicate smokiness.
The 43% alcohol content strikes a balance between intensity and elegance.The flavor profile remains refined and well-balanced—the peat does not dominate, but rather serves as a backdrop for fruity and wine-like notes.
This is a whiskey that’s best enjoyed during a leisurely tasting, where you can appreciate its multi-layered character and the influence of its unconventional aging process.
