Bowmore Tempest 10 Year Old Small Batch Release #4 70cl

The fourth release in Bowmore's Tempest series, taking a small batch of first-fill bourbon casks and marrying them before bottling at cask strength. A classic example of relatively young and fully flavoured Bowmore.

Bowmore lies on the south eastern shore of Loch Indaal & was built in the late 18th century. The distillery produce whisky in the classic smoky style of Islay & favour ageing in Bourbon wood to Sherry oak, although exceptions are often made for special editions.

Tasting Notes

NOSE
Sweet grain, coal smoke, concentrated fruit and spice, grapefruit skin, butter icing and a meaty hint hiding in the middle, but it all felt a bit ‘compressed’. With water it sweetened up, adding milk chocolate, sweet and sour apples, pine needles, grapefruit, cinnamon and burning spices appearing. The smoke expanded into a sweeter coal dust laden smoke, with some coal tar, wet wool and brine.
PALATE
Neat, it started with sour cream and vanilla, lemon zest, bitter orange, brine and tar, before bursting into sweet coal and green wood. With water, there was lots of sweetness, with creamy fruit (cheap strawberry ice cream?) turning darker through liquorice to burning pine needles.
FINISH
It seemed to finish quickly with a touch of wood and apple skin, but reappeared after a few seconds with vanilla, fruit skin and some floral notes. Water made the finish more consistent, with floral notes, fruity sweets, dark wood, and a mix of light and heavily toasted grain.
