The Whisky Agency Bowmore 1996 26 Year Old Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700mL

Discover the exceptional character of Bowmore 1996 26 Year Old, an extraordinary Islay single malt that reflects over a quarter-century of craftsmanship. Distilled in 1996 and aged for 26 years, this rare expression has matured gracefully, allowing the unmistakable Bowmore coastal DNA to evolve into a beautifully layered and complex whisky.

On the nose, it reveals a symphony of dried tropical fruits, rich toffee, honeyed smoke, and maritime brine. The palate is luxuriously smooth, offering dark chocolate, spiced oak, roasted nuts, and subtle peat, balanced with a touch of sea salt and citrus zest. The finish is long, warming, and elegantly smoky, leaving a lingering memory of salted caramel and gentle smoke.

Bottled at natural cask strength, non-chill filtered, and often drawn from carefully selected casks, this release is a true collector’s item and a celebration of Bowmore’s time-honored mastery.
