About this product
Peat, Honey, and Coastal Charm.
From the rugged shores of Islay comes Bowmore 12 Year Old, a whisky shaped by sea air, peat smoke, and generations of craftsmanship. This expression balances smoky warmth with a soft sweetness, creating a dram that’s both approachable for newcomers and rewarding for seasoned whisky lovers. Matured in a blend of American oak ex-bourbon casks and European Oloroso sherry casks, Bowmore 12 offers a layered profile with notes of citrus, honey, and a gentle coastal smokiness that lingers long after the last sip. Beloved by whisky enthusiasts across Ireland, this classic Islay malt brings a touch of Scotland’s wild west coast to every glass.

Bowmore 12 Year Old delivers a smooth balance of gentle peat and sweet honey, with bright citrus and smoky layers that make it endlessly enjoyable. It’s a whisky that invites slow sipping, great conversation, and sharing stories by the fire—perfect for Irish homes and gatherings.
