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

First distilled on 5 November 1964 at the Bowmore distillery on Islay, over the years this series has become one of the rarest and most sought-after single malt whiskies ever created.'
