New Bowmore Tempest batch 3

Or as we say around here, fàilte (pronounced 'foyle-ta').
Bowmore TempestTempest
We are delighted to announce the arrival of our third release of Bowmore Tempest.

A violent windstorm, frequently accompanied by rain, snow, or hail.


Every year we release a small batch of Tempest to bring you a little taste of a wild, stormy Islay day. Each non chill-filtered batch is a little different one year to the next but will always reflect our raw spirit and is reminiscent of tasting a dram straight out of the cask in our legendary No.1 Vaults here on Islay... A first fill Bourbon cask that is.

Our newest release of Tempest has delicious notes of Seville orange zest coupled with Islay peat smoke, sweet vanilla and barley sugar. We suggest you try it with a piece of rich, dark chocolate to release the sweetness and depth of the spirit - magical!
Taste Map
We are also excited to announce another new addition... The Islay Taste map. Working with renowned whisky writer Martine Nouet, we have created a map that explores and explains the very, very, different tastes of all 8 Islay distilleries.

Watch out for it coming soon on bowmore.com and facebook.com/bowmore
