Description

A ceramic bottle of Bowmore 30 Year Old.

Nicknamed 'The Sea Dragon' due to the mythical beast adorning the black ceramic bottle, this 30 year old Bowmore appeared in the early to mid-1990s.

Bowmore started distilling in 1779, though there is no evidence of whisky production until John Simpson was granted a licence to distil in 1816. The distillery passed through several hands, and even supplied a cask to Windsor Castle, before it was purchased by perhaps its most famous owner, Stanley P Morrison, in 1963. Bowmore maintains its own floor maltings which supply 40% of its barley, and is known for its medium-peated character. The whisky is left to mature in the No.1 Vaults, which is said to inhabit a unique microclimate, perfect for long periods of maturation.

This Bowmore 30 Year Old sold at our online auction for £1,600
