Bowmore 21 Year Old Château Lagrange French Oak Barriques Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700mL

This marvellous expression from Islay's Bowmore Distillery introduces a French twist to the single malt Scotch whisky. It's a 21 year whisky which has been fully matured in French oak barriques from Château Lagrange, which is a fabulous Grand Cru Classé winery in Bordeaux. The balance between the bright, bold, fruity notes from the cask alongside the characteristic coastal elements from Bowmore's whisky makes for a brilliant flavour profile.

Sweet aromas of red berries, dark chocolate-covered nuts, treacle and oak fill the nose, complemented by notes of manuka honey, toasted hazelnuts and almonds, cinnamon, nutmeg, praline and a hint of peat smoke throughout the palate.
