Bowmore has collaborated with ultra-luxury British brand, Aston Martin. Whilst originating from two very different, if not contrasting worlds, we share a synchronicity which unites us creating a strong bond which bridges these distinctive worlds. And this bond evolves from the partnership of the two Masters, who each lead their areas of expertise with vision and vigour.

In celebration of this extraordinary meeting of minds, we unveil the second iteration of our inspired Masters’ Selection series, Bowmore Aston Martin Masters’ Selection 22-Year-Old, a single malt capturing a harmonising force in both its presence and it character. 

This whisky absolutely captures this synchronised creativity as it brings two distinct parts together, in this case American Oak hogsheads with Sherry butts. But also uniting two different millennium, with whisky distilled in 1997 and 2000 respectively.  

This 22-Year-Old single malt delivers a character of two distinct, synchronized parts, much like our two Masters.  Beginning with fragrances of honey sweetness, peach, and apricot, yet evolving into bolder medicinal aromas, with fresh tobacco, cloves, and eucalyptus.   The palate is treated to another contrast of character, yet this time with a maritime feel giving an initial medicinal, salty taste which gives way to sweetness in the form of honey, yet with an intriguing note of fresh oysters lingers bringing it back to Islay, along with the subtle peat smoke on the mouth drying finish.

A truly harmonious single malt, seamlessly merging two distinct parts to create a unified taste experience; celebration of the power of unity where distinctive flavours can come together beautifully.

Bowmore Masters’ Selection Edition 2 is the second release in the collectable series available in key global markets including UK, Germany, Canada, USA, and China at an RSP of GBP £390/US$450 (ex VAT/duty) from September 2022 onwards.
