Bowmore Sherriff's 18 Year Old 26 2/3 Fl Oz
Lot number: 139-01195
This lot failed to meet its reserve.
Surely there are few locations more evocative than the shores of Lochindaal, an area positively steeped in rich Scottish folklore. It's no wonder then that Bowmore has a whiff of magic about it (or perhaps that's just the whisky). The oldest distillery on Islay, Bowmore still retains its own floor maltings; and while they can no longer meet all of the busy distillery's requirements, they still contribute a third of the malt used in every mash.
Just because something is old, doesn't mean it's old-fashioned, and Bowmore's eco-friendly heat recovery system not only cuts down on those pesky bills, it also heats the town swimming pool!
This increasingly rare release comes from the period when the distillery was bought from the Mutter family in 1925 by J.B. Sheriff & Co. It remained under their ownership until being purchased by Inverness-based William Grigor & Son, Ltd. in 1950.
