Nose: Rich tropical fruits, ripe mango, passion fruit, and papaya intertwine with notes of polished oak, honeycomb, dark chocolate, and gentle maritime smoke. Delicate hints of leather, antique furniture, and exotic spices add further complexity.

Palate: Luxuriously smooth and incredibly layered, delivering flavours of dried fruits, caramelised citrus, toffee, roasted nuts, and soft vanilla. The characteristic Bowmore peat emerges subtly, complemented by sea salt, oak spice, and elegant floral notes.

Finish: Exceptionally long and sophisticated, with lingering tropical fruit, sweet oak, gentle smoke, and a touch of coastal salinity.
