Following distillation, Bowmore 23 Year Old Port Cask Single Malt Scotch Whisky was matured for 23 years exclusively in port casks and then bottled in 2013 without the use of chill-filtration. This is "truly an exceptional Bowmore," says Brand Ambassador Gordon Dundas . Full maturation in the finest port casks is rare but gives this bottling an amazing depth and flavour developed over 23 years while importantly still retaining all of the character of Bowmore.

The whisky has a deep ruby red color, along with an aroma of plums, black cherries, wood smoke and sea salt. The aroma gives way to notes of autumn fruits, winter spices and truffles on the palate, and leads to a finish accented by notes of berries, blood oranges, and red fruits.
