Whiskyland Flowermore 1985 38 Year Old is an exceptionally rare Islay single malt sourced from the renowned Bowmore Distillery.
Distilled in 1985 and matured for an impressive 38 years in a single refill barrel, this whisky was bottled at its natural cask strength of 53.3% ABV, preserving the depth, intensity and character developed over nearly four decades of maturation.
The 1980s are widely regarded as an especially distinctive period for Bowmore, producing whiskies celebrated for their floral character, exotic fruit and beautifully integrated peat smoke. This single cask showcases that classic style with remarkable complexity and balance.
On the nose and palate, expect elegant violet notes, tropical and exotic fruits, delicate maritime peat smoke and layers of mature oak. Despite its age and strength, the whisky remains refined and expressive, with the floral character complementing rather than overwhelming the fruit and smoke.
A highly distinctive old Islay whisky, this 38-year-old single cask is an outstanding choice for serious collectors and enthusiasts seeking rare vintage Bowmore.
