Bowmore Enigma 12 ans, un whisky écossais Islay single malt, distillé à 40% d’alcool dans une bouteille d’1 litre, produit en Écosse avec l’emballage d’origine.
Description fournie par le vendeur
The Bowmore Enigma 12 Year Old is an Islay single malt Scotch whisky originally released for the travel retail (duty-free) market.
Description
The Enigma is a variation of the standard Bowmore 12 Year Old but features a higher proportion of sherry casks (specifically Oloroso sherry casks) in its maturation. Consequently, this edition is typically slightly darker in color and richer and sweeter than the standard 12-year-old. This profile is balanced by characteristic Islay peat smoke—ranging from mild to robust—and a subtle salinity. The alcohol content is 40% ABV.
(Note: the name "2007" can sometimes refer to specific hand-filled distillery bottlings from that vintage year or to the early production period of the Enigma series).
Tasting Notes
• Color: Deep bronze to coppery amber.
• Nose (Aroma):
• Classic Bowmore smoke combined with rich sherry sweetness.
• Notes of raisins, overripe plums, and berries.
• Hints of heather honey, vanilla, leather, tobacco, and a touch of fresh lemon or orange zest.
• Taste (Palate):
• Opens sweetly with the full flavor of sherry, dried fruit (raisins, figs), and honey.
• Quickly followed by a warmer spiciness (such as nutmeg and white pepper) and pleasant, soft peat and wood smoke. • Undertones of black liquorice, vanilla, and a hint of seaweed/sea-salt salinity.
• Finish:
• Medium to long.
• Ends dry with an interplay of oak, fading ash, spices, and a final sweet hint of red fruit or peat.
