The clear fruitiness was good. BOWMORE 1992 17yo CADENHEAD DUTHIES 46% one of 573 bottles The aroma features grapefruit, fresh barley notes, passion fruit, lychee, soft peat, a touch of green grass. On the palate, it is smooth with grapefruit and passion fruit, fresh barley notes, a light sweetness and citrus acidity. There are also hints of young barley and plants. While it lacks thickness, the peat and briny notes become more pronounced towards the finish. 【Good/Very Good】 This is a BOWMORE 17yo from the Cadenhead Duthies. Although there was no record, when inquiring with Cadenhead, it was confirmed to be a 1992 vintage. From the aroma to the flavor, the BOWMORE characteristics such as grapefruit and passion fruit were clearly present. It was also good that the aroma was approachable and elegant, possibly due to the added water. While it had a youthful quality with some barley and plant notes, there were parts masked by the peat that did not feel intrusive. Overall, it was a delicious BOWMORE from the early 90s. #BOWMORE (BOWMORE)
