Tiens, suite à la discussion sur le 93, je suis allé faire un tour sur Whisky Notes et j'ai trouvé une description aromatique très proche de celui que j'ai pu gouter hier au soir. Même année de distillation, vieillissement presque similaire...Jbrice a écrit :Bowmore 24yo 1982-2007 Signatory Vintage Cask Strength Collection Bourbon barrel Cask 100615 52.2%.

Nose: hmmm… what’s this? It’s not soapy Bowmore, but it’s not like their regular stuff either. Very candied, with some marshmallow and cherry fruit gums. Hey, I like this, although it’s still faintly floral and I wouldn’t possibly recognize this as a Bowmore. Soft vanilla / white chocolate underneath. With a drop of water it becomes very lightly peaty and quite grassy. Mouth: very sweet attack. Violet candy appears, balancing on the edge between fruity notes and hints of lavender. But it never crosses the line. Citrus. Some peat in the background, with whiffs of cinnamon. Finish: still quite candied, with vanilla and just a hint of peat.
Ever wondered how a Bowmore lollipop would taste like? Once you get over the prejudices, this is very enjoyable. And I never thought I would write that about a 1982 Bowmore. In any case unique. Around € 120.
Score: 85/100
