Суммаризация отзывов
Отзывы описывают Bowmore 21-year-old как виски с заметной солодовой дымностью, шери-нотами (тёмные фрукты, джем, шоколад) и характерной «мыльной»/фиалковой нотой, особенно в финише. Мнения о балансе и интенсивности расходятся: часть отзывов отмечает глубину и сложность, часть — что аромат сдержанный, а мыльность воспринимается как недостаток.
развернуть подробно
В текстах неоднократно упоминается сочетание дымности и шери-влияния: тёмные фрукты, слива, изюм, джем, шоколад, тоффи, кожа и табак, а также «мыльная»/фиалковая нота, которая у одних описывается как классическая черта, у других — как ложная нота или недостаток, особенно в финише. Аромат описывают по-разному: от сдержанного и тонкого до насыщенного и «роскошного», с нотами фиалкового мыла, пепла, тоффи и сухофруктов; во вкусе отмечают пряность, дубовую древесину, шоколад, цитрусовую цедру, орехи и морские/минеральные оттенки, а финиш — от среднего до длинного, с дымом, специями и иногда мыльностью.
Отдельные отзывы расходятся в оценке: некоторые называют виски глубоким, сложным и достойным серии, другие — разочаровывающим или менее интенсивным по сравнению с другими релизами, с серными и мыльными оттенками. Также встречаются замечания о цене и о том, что впечатление зависит от дегустации, а профиль может смещаться в сторону красных фруктов и «молодой» живости.

S 6 A vat of older casks and newer casks. Mahogany in colour. I’m never a fan of soap and dry whiskies, so take my score with a pinch of salt. The delivery is balanced and consistent throughout. It's not as salty as the official notes described. The peat smoke only becomes obvious towards the finish.
нос · вкус · финиш
| Нос | 87 | Caramel and toffee candy. Dark plums with skin on. The port cask influence slowly kicks in bringing a slightly jammy nosefeel. A whiff of leather, Parma Violet and malty smoke deep down. Quite a thick nose despite the lower abv. |
| Вкус | 87 | Toasted oak spices and the soapy notes fully exploded. White flowers, soapy, and peppery landing. The jammy fruits note takes back the ground a bit until the waves of smoked hay and toffee dominates palate again. Nutty 50% chocolate. Orange peels. Nutmegs, cinnamon, cloves. Earthy peat with a touch of coastal breeze from front to end. |
| Финиш | 85 | Medium, moderately dry finish. Slightly jammy red fruits. Warm smoke. Subtle touch of lingering soap and a touch savoury towards the very end. |

I'm a fan of the AM series, this one is okay but can't keep up with the others. 81-85 – Wow, really good one

| Нос | 83 | The aroma is not very intense, rather subtle. Light sweetness, leather, cigar and nuts. |

A very good Bowmore, the soapy feel of the old Bowmore and the sherry ashtray style of the new Bowmore are well combined. Apart from the sharp drop in price, there are really no shortcomings...
нос · вкус · финиш
| Нос | 88 | Deep smoke, medium peat, or the familiar Sherry ashtray, toffee, raisins, black plum, roasted hazelnuts, wood tone, deep inhalation will have a rich violet flower scent |
| Вкус | 88 | The entrance is very comfortable, with a strong soapy taste, roasted hazelnuts, caramel, orange, black plum, and after chewing the wine, the smoky nut feeling will slowly spread out cinnamon powder and coffee powder. |
| Финиш | 87 | The aftertaste is medium, the smoky feeling lasts for a long time, and the sourness of black plums remains on the tongue. |

Clear difference to the other bottlings from this series. Less fruity and more salty and woody than the rest but i find it more exciting for that reason. If you give it enough time sweetness and toffee notes develop as well.

Not as intense and broad in terms of aromas as others in the series. Even if not as extremely pronounced as in bottlings from the 80s, there is also a soapy-floral note, particularly in the finish, which I consider a false note.

The finish is slightly weaker, but the overall quality remains high. It's not as delightful as "Butterfly Transformation," but it's more complex. Also, the expression seems rather subtle; my wife and I had very different experiences drinking this wine. I suggest trying it before deciding whether to buy it. Rating reference price: 2250

| Нос | 91 | The alcohol is well-controlled, and the aroma is quite exuberant. It begins with violet soap and peat ash, followed by toffee, dried sweet berries, raisins, and plums. There are almost no fruity or acidic notes, just a touch of elegant leather and tobacco, some cool herbs and moist woody notes, and a hint of dried dates in the finish. Overall, it's sweet, elegant, and pleasant. |
| Вкус | 90 | The alcohol note is initially weak but quickly intensifies, exhibiting a noticeable spiciness, though not to the point of being unpleasant. It's a not-too-cloying sweet fruit juice, with hints of ash and violet soap; in the mid-to-late stages, acidity and astringency emerge, reminiscent of orange and lemon peel. There are also leathery and sweet woody notes in the center. |
| Финиш | 88 | The dry rocks, soot, and embers of a fire, the sweetness of some fruits, but the bitterness of the orange peel and twigs is more pronounced in the middle and later parts, and even some unsweetened bitter almonds. |

Initially I could have believed this was a Springbank. After getting into it the red wine cask notes really take over and the Bowmore spirit works very well with red wine casks. Although the abundance of red fruit was unexpected and maybe a bit too much.

deep and rich. A wonderful conclusion to a stunning one of a kind series. I managed to get this bottle in time to compare with the previous 3 editions. And while different tropical fruit, intensity, viscosity, and spices, the quality still reminds me it is part of a wonderful series of top notch bowmore. I wish their core range was this impressive. In this very rare experience, what i've realized is that these bottles are more interesting consumed with the complete series to really contrast flavors. It's been a fascinating little experiment i have been so fortunate enough to have. Wonderful and delicious old Bowmore. I wish i can get more!

First crack, first impressions (with a lingering cold): Raspberry jam, cola, mesquite, jasmine, sea salt, ginger, cloves, butterscotch. It's spritely and pleasant. At the moment, it's certainly not worth MSRP, but some places are selling this for a song (I paid the equivalent of 145 euros for this - before tax). So, if you can find it at a heavy discount like I did, it might be worth it if you want a pleasant easy-going simpler sipper. I've had edition 1 as well. If I recall, that one tasted older - creamier and with more herbaceous elegance and more jasmine. This one has more berries and has a younger spriteliness to it - I guess more life? 91 for Ed. 1 and 90 for Ed. 4, but this is just a first crack and I don't know if I necessarily like it less - maybe I like it more(?), but it scores less as it drinks younger and the quality I'd say is higher on Ed. 1, but, yeah, I think I might like this more...

Yuzu marmalade, candy, berries, chocolate, dusty note, jelly beans, red ginseng jelly. A thick sweetness reminiscent of yuzu marmalade stands out. Rather than dense dried fruit and chocolate-driven sherry, the profile leans toward candy, jelly beans, and berry-like sweetness. Behind the playful sweetness, Bowmore’s signature bonito-like peat appears, followed by a peach-like fruitiness.
