The Bowmore 1997 Distillery Manager's Selection is a single malt whisky, distinguished by a strength of 51.7% ABV. Distilled in 1997 and released in 2019, this whisky is a part of the limited series from Bowmore Distillery.
Distillery Manager David Turner hand-selected this edition, positioning it as a continuation of the Bowmore Craftsmen's Collection. This series highlights the craftsmanship intrinsic to Bowmore's whisky production.
Significant to its profile, the whisky matures in first-fill Oloroso Sherry Hogsheads. The release comprises only 3000 bottles, each bearing an individual number, thereby contributing to its collectible value.
This distillery-exclusive release encapsulates Bowmore's distinct style and the unique characteristics of its Islay origins. Its maturation period of 21 years and specialized cask selection underscore Bowmore's dedication to producing quality whisky.
