Bowmore 21 Port Cask Finish

Country: Scotland

Region: Islay

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 51.5%

Score: 93 Points

The nose has notes of candied orange peel, honey, dark chocolate, and hints of ginger and peat. The taste starts off with a cayenne pepper blast, honey and orange notes, with slight hints of berries and dark chocolate coming out as the pepper fades. The finish is a dry and sweet wine with a hint of orange peel and lingers nicely. Overall, well-balanced and smooth.
