Bowmore Tempest 10 (Batch 2)
Country: Scotland
Region: Islay
Type: Single Malt
Bottler: Distiller
ABV: 55.3%
Score: 91 Points
This is the second batch of Tempest, and the first 500 bottles made up one of Bowmore’s two 2010 Feis Ile special releases. This has notes of orange peel, vanilla, and caramel candy on the nose. The taste is very smooth with notes of vanilla, butterscotch, and toffee, with just a slight lemon-lime touch at the back of the throat. The finish is peppery and long with a hint of smoke.
