Bowmore was one of the last of the islay whiskys I got to know of, and taste. Last but certainly not least! I think this is just a wonderful malt that gives a lot of pleasure. Nose: Wax. Furniture polish. Industrial. Steam Engine. Aceto. Smoke. This is awsome! Palate: Wonderful mouthfeel. Oily. Orange Zest. Oak! Finish: Sweet Bitterness. Great dram!
