Nose
Fresh peat smoke.
Palate
Seems very tame at first, with a cookie-like maltiness, but the characteristic ferny lavender, fragrant smoke and sea air gradually emerge.
Finish
Sweet smokiness. With water, late saltiness. honey-roast peanuts.
Comment
A light, smooth, Bowmore that might attract younger drinkers.

Nose
Fragrant with clean cereal notes. Heather, peat smoke and lanolin (woolly jumpers). Dried thyme. Young.
Palate
Mid-weight with tangerine and incense in the mid-palate mixed with fragrant smoke which builds towards the back of the mouth.
Finish
Good length, quite juicy.
Comment
A fine introduction to peated Islays and a good session malt.
