Bowmore 1999 Feis Ile 2016 17 Years Pedro Ximénez Sherry Cask 24 Hand-Filled Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky Cask Strength 56.1% Vol. - one of only 666 bottles of a great Islay Single Malt!
This rare vintage 1999 17-year-old Bowmore Feis Ile 2016 hand-filled 14th edition limited bottling Islay single malt scotch whisky was bottled exclusively in May 2016 at cask strength 56,1% abv from a Pedro Ximénez sherry cask with cask no. 24 in a small edition with only 666 bottles and was formally not otherwise available.
Every part of the whisky was finished by hand and distilled in 1999: the barley was malted, hand turned and tradionally peat kiln dried at the distillery. After distillation, the spirit spent more than 17 years slowly maturing in a Pedro Ximénez Sherry butt cask before finally for a small number of visitors could be filled by hand from the barrel. This is a Bowmore in its natural form, of the barley, and its maturation in the bottle. The result is a Bowmore with a auburn-bronze in color, the aromas are complex - sweet and subtle smoke with soft peat, dark chocolate with sherry and oak spice. On the palate it is surprisingly delicate - very tiny and fresh, wood smoke and sweet sherry, dates and dark berries, espresso. The finish is long lasting and warm with mint, sweet sherry, raisins, black coffee with oak and smoke. A rare and special Bowmore Islay whisky with great body that is reminiscent of old times and can compete with the legendary bottlings from the 60s and 70s or a Seadragon. Due to its low circulation of this special and delicious Bowmore rarely found and is one of the sought-after bottlings among connoisseurs and collectors. Each bottle also comes with its own bag and certificate of authenticity. These distillery-only bottles suggest that a high quality spirit is being matched with excellent cask selection - highly recommended Bowmore Islay single malt!
