Bowmore 27 Year Old 1996-2024 Hogshead #1353 Raw Cask Statement Edition No. 61 by Blackadder Single Malt Scotch Whisky

The Whisky: Blackadder Raw Cask Statement Bowmore 27-year-old (1996–2024) is an Islay single cask hogshead that shows Bowmore in a fully coastal, elegant mode, with gentle, aged smoke wrapped around citrus, vanilla and polished oak, plus a saline sea-breeze note and likely some soft tropical or stone fruits from the long 27-year maturation, giving a supple, layered texture while still delivering the Raw Cask “from-the-barrel” character collectors look for.

Flavour Profile:  On the palate this Blackadder Raw Cask Statement Bowmore 27-year-old shows gentle bonfire and peat embers, carried on a distinctly coastal, salty backbone, then layered with bright citrus, soft tropical fruit, sweet malt and light floral notes, while the long hogshead ageing adds rounded vanilla, polished oak and subtle spice so the overall impression is elegant, quietly complex and maritime, with the smoke integrated into the fruit and oak.
