Bowmore 18 Years Old Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 43% ABV 0.7l in a gift box online kaufen

The Bowmore 18 Years Old Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 43% ABV 0.7 l is an exceptional Scottish single malt whisky from the island of Islay, combining traditional whisky-making with a carefully balanced maturation in bourbon and Oloroso sherry casks. It is produced at the renowned Bowmore Distillery, which was founded as early as 1779 and is thus one of Scotland’s oldest distilleries. The distillery is situated right on the coast of Islay and is renowned for its characterful, maritime-influenced whiskies. Peated barley malt is used for the Bowmore 18 Years Old, before the distillate is matured for at least 18 years in selected oak casks. The combination of ex-bourbon casks and Oloroso sherry casks forms the basis for the distinctive style of this matured Islay single malt Scotch whisky.


The Bowmore 18 Years Old is one of the distillery’s established premium bottlings and embodies the harmonious blend of traditional peated whisky production and long-term sherry cask maturation. A special feature is its storage in the famous Bowmore No. 1 Vaults, the historic warehouses situated directly on the Atlantic coast, which are among the oldest maturation cellars in Scotland. The careful selection of casks and the long maturation period lend this 18-year-old Islay whisky its distinctive character. As a peated single malt whisky, it represents a balanced interpretation of the classic Bowmore style. At 43% ABV in a 0.7-litre bottle with a matching gift box, the Bowmore 18 Years Old is a premium speciality for connoisseurs of long-matured Scotch whiskies and a stylish gift for special occasions.

Tasting Note

Colour: Deep amber with warm mahogany and copper highlights.

Nose: Elegant peat smoke meets creamy caramel, dark chocolate and ripe dried fruit. Subtle sherry notes, spicy ginger and gentle malt accents lend the bouquet additional depth.

Palate: Full-bodied and multi-layered, with a harmonious blend of dark chocolate, juicy dried fruit and spicy oak. A pleasant sherry sweetness is accompanied by subtle peat smoke, delicate nutty notes and a slight maritime saltiness.

Finish: Long-lasting and pleasantly warming, with lingering notes of sherry, dark chocolate, spicy oak and an elegant hint of peaty smoke.

The Bowmore 18 Years Old Islay Single Malt reveals its complex aromas particularly well when enjoyed neat at room temperature, ideally in a tulip-shaped nosing glass. A few drops of still water can further enhance the interplay of peaty smoke, dark fruits and Oloroso sherry cask notes. Recommended food pairings include smoked salmon, grilled duck breast with fig sauce, mature Cheddar or a tangy blue cheese, whose robust flavours harmonise beautifully with the whisky. Dark chocolate truffles, walnut cake or desserts with caramelised nuts also make for delightful combinations. The matching gift box also makes this traditional Islay single malt an attractive present for discerning whisky lovers and collectors.
