WHITE BOWMORE 1964 43 YEAR OLD bottle number 171 of 732, bottled in 2008, with presentation case 70cl/ 42.8% Note: Quite simply put, one of the best whiskies ever made. In 1964, six casks previously used to mature bourbon were filled at the Bowmore distillery and laid to rest for 43 years. When they emerged they filled 732 bottles. The chosen warehouse was the distilleries famous No 1 vaults, which is said to have a unique microclimate with one of the walls forming part of the town's sea wall and it is also below sea level. The distillates from the 1950s and 1960s are the finest that Bowmore has ever produced, but also represent some of the best whisky in the world of any era. They have a seductive balance of tropical fruits infused with a subtle smoke, which is highly sought after by whisky connoisseurs. Bowmore White is the second in the series of a trio of bottles from 1964. The first edition was Bowmore Black, matured in Oloroso sherry casks and bottled in 2007, and Bowmore Gold, matured in three bourbon and one oloroso sherry cask and bottled in 2009. The official tasting notes are 'The colour is golden syrup, with amazing aromas of Gallia melon, mango and papaya.
