Tasting notes for Bowmore “Claret”

» See All Single Malt Scotch Whisky Reviews «

O.B., 56% a.b.v.

A sweet nose with lots of grape.  The palate is a good mesh between the cask and the whisky.  Sweet, warm, creative.  Moderate Islay undertones.  Creamy smokiness and sweet fruit in the palate, umeboshi (Japanese pickled plum) in the finish.  Unusual.  A charmer.
