1 bottle SCOTCH WHISKY "Islay Single Malt", Bowmore 1967 (et, ea, J) Like Armagnac, whisky belongs to the great family of eaux-de-vie. It differs, however, in its raw material: no longer wine, but a fermented cereal mash - most often malted barley - which is then distilled and aged for a long time in oak casks. Produced on the Scottish island of Islay, Bowmore is one of the most emblematic single malts of this region, famous for its delicately peaty, maritime whiskies. Founded in 1779, the Bowmore distillery is one of the oldest in Scotland, with its historic cellars located by the sea, where the salty air helps age the whisky. The 1967 vintage is now considered one of the distillery's great vintages, coming from the particularly famous Bowmore period of the 1960s. These older whiskies are prized for their remarkable aromatic complexity, with notes of smoke, sea spray, candied citrus, exotic fruits and spices, revealed by decades of maturation in casks.
