Black Bowmore DB5 1964
Single Malt
Bowmore // Islay, Scotland
Black Bowmore DB5 1964 is the first collaboration between Bowmore Distillery and luxury British sports car maker Aston Martin. It was distilled on November 5, 1964 and was part of the first distillation after the distillery added a new boiler to the distillery that year. This new boiler allowed them to move from coal fire to steam.
This year also is notable for the Aston Martin DB5--it was featured in the 1964 James Bond film Goldfinger. The bottle was crafted by Scottish glass studio Glasstorm which designed the bottle to be a replica of an Aston Martin DB5 piston. Only 25 bottles were produced and are available as of late autumn 2020.
