Bowmore 1997 Distillery Manager's Selection Oloroso Sherry Hogshead 653-658 , 660-665 51.7% 700ml information

The Bowmore 1997 Distillery Manager's Selection is a limited edition whisky from Islay's oldest licensed distillery, Bowmore. Distilled in 1997 and bottled in 2019, this exquisite expression was meticulously chosen by Distillery Manager David Turner and matured in first-fill Oloroso Sherry Hogsheads. With only 3000 individually numbered bottles, it stands as a rare and unique treasure for connoisseurs and collectors alike. Bowmore, established in 1799, boasts a rich heritage and is renowned for its No.1 Vaults, one of the world’s oldest Scotch maturation warehouses. The distillery gained prominence under Wm & Jas.

Bowmore's reputation soared in the mid-1960s and has continued to thrive under Suntory's ownership since 1994, affirming its place as a leader in the whisky industry. This Distillery Manager's Selection exemplifies Bowmore's unwavering commitment to excellence. The whisky's heavy sherry influence harmonizes perfectly with the distillery's signature profile, creating a complex and indulgent experience. Adding a few drops of water is recommended to unlock its full potential.

We have used Spirit Radar since the very beginning. Both in our business and for private use. It is a fantastic tool to keep you updated in the market. It can be very time consuming to find an exact bottle somewhere in the world, but with Spirit Radar, you can get that information within seconds. We have also used it when we need to keep track of our bottles and see what our customers wants. Besides that, its an interesting platform, when you want to explore the rum world, or search for bottles that could be really hard to find in the normal stores. It is very easy and intuitive to use.
