Lot number: 067-5373

This lot failed to meet its reserve.

The oldest distillery on Islay, Bowmore has been described as the Grande Dame of the island. It still has its own floor maltings which make up about 30% of its requirements. Its No. 1 vaults are the oldest maturation warehouse in Scotland and the only one below sea level.

A truly beautiful bottle, all 53 bottles are hand blown and the design is later sculpted from molten glass. A solid slate plinth and solid silver cap complete the image. The whisky is meant to be rather stellar too!

Age: 40 years old

Cask Type: Bourbon

Cask Number: 2161

44.8% ABV / 70cl

Bottle Number: 49 / 53

Please note the silver stopper is slightly tarnished.

Please also note that due to the size of the box and the slate plinth being extremely heavy, extra shipping costs will apply.

Please examine all images of the lot, any packaging and labels carefully and satisfy yourself as to their condition before making a bid.
