These 2014 Bowmores are so special. It's absolutely shocking that the distillery isn't bottling these incredible barrels. In fact, I'd contend that no distillery currently has a greater disparity between the character of what's available through Independent Bottlers and the distillery offerings. Not that Bowmore's whisky is bad, but none of it has the depth and soul of these single casks. The younger version we had last year sold out quickly and the number of request for more far out paced any other. This is one of those whiskies that on paper its difficult to comprehend simply how special it is. This years barrel is relatively different from last year, offering a bit less of the tropical fruit and more zesty lemon and a gorgeous ocean character, but its no less pleasurable. It's simply incredible that we're still able to offer this top tier blue chip malt at these prices considering the market conditions we're facing, yet here we are. I know that you know you'll regret not grabbing this before it arrives because we will absolutely have to raise our prices on the in stock version.
