Description

This 27-year-old single malt Scotch whisky is the second release in Bowmore's prestigious Timeless Series. It was initially matured for 15 years in a combination of sherry and bourbon casks, then spent a further 12 years in first-fill Oloroso sherry butts. Bottled at cask strength of 52.7% ABV, only 3,000 bottles were produced worldwide. The release comes in a distinctive hourglass-shaped black box, often including an hourglass to encourage savoring the aroma. [3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 13, 15]
