Gal Granov (88)

Nose: Starts peaty, but not quite so much peat, a big bang of red fruit, to the point of being sort of marmalade-ish, and some dirty sherry notes, this is a big sherry Bowmore, and not that i had not expected it to be, I sure did. a bit of salty, or briny feel to it too, as well as tar and molasses. It’s big, but not very devilish…

Palate: Wham! this is a BIG whisky. quite an impact on first sip right there… quite oaky and peaty (lots of peat – for the peat freaks out there) and certainly a big sherry effect too as one can expect. more spices arrive on the 2nd wave of sensations, as well as some sweet marinated BBQ meat , ash and coal.

Finish: quite woody, with sherry going on a long way, the red fruit jam lingers as well as peat, and spices, it’s very dry.


Conclusion

Bowmore is on a roll, with recent Tempest bottlings, Laimrigs, and the Travel retail, they are becoming one of my favourite distilleries of recent… This whisky is no exception: It’s big and bold and tasty, and quite complex for a 10 year old dram, and I like it quite a bit. Having said that, there is no chance in HELL i am buying a bottle of this for more than the RRP, however good it is, there are other good malts around for saner prices. the devil, you know
