The last release of Black Bowmore occurred in 2007 when a 42-year expression was released. All five releases were distilled on November 5, 1964 and filled seven first-fill oloroso sherry hogsheads.

In 2002, two of the seven casks were married into one and it is from that cask that this bottling hails. This expression also marks the second release in the Vault Legends Collection. 159 bottles were released globally with a portion of the bottles making it to the US in July 2017.
