The Bowmore 21 Years Old Sherry Oak Cask Islay Single Malt, at 46.8% ABV in a 0.7-litre bottle complete with a gift box, is an exceptionally matured expression that combines classic Islay characteristics with the profound complexity of sherry casks. This whisky is produced by the historic Bowmore Distillery, which has stood for precision, balance and maritime character since 1779. The long maturation period of 21 years lends this Islay single malt a remarkable depth and a multi-layered profile that harmoniously blends power, elegance and maturity.


Careful cask management is at the heart of this bottling. Following a long maturation in selected oak casks, the whisky receives its final ‘Epilog’ finish in first-fill Pedro Ximénez sherry casks. This final phase emphasises the Master Blender’s signature style and enriches the flavour profile with additional depth, warmth and structure. The whisky boasts an expressive, autumnal colour and displays an extraordinary range of aromas that combine the smoky Bowmore style with sweet, spicy sherry influences. Bottled at 46.8%, without chill filtration or colouring, the whisky retains its full texture and aromatic density.
