Bowmore Legend is a classic non-age-statement Islay single malt that joined Bowmore’s core range in 1994 and remained a favourite until its discontinuation in 2015. Created as an approachable introduction to the distillery’s signature style, it combines gentle peat smoke with subtle sweetness and distinctive coastal influences. Now a nostalgic release, it captures the character of an earlier generation of Bowmore whiskies. Bottled at 40% ABV.
Nose: Delicate peat smoke complemented by fresh citrus, honeyed sweetness, and soft maritime aromas.
Palate: Smooth and balanced, featuring gentle smoke, sweet malt, and hints of creamy vanilla.
Finish: Clean and refreshing, with light lingering smoke, a dry character, and a touch of coastal salinity.
