Hunting season is almost about to begin and I am looking forward to the mornings and evenings where I will be waiting or walking around for a deer. Observing the animals and nature.
This picture is from a hunt back in January. I had a great day in perfect weather, it was cold but beautiful. The riffel was unloaded and the sun was setting. I poured my self a dram of Bowmore 12 year old and enjoyed the moment of silence, the warming whisky and good day in nature.
Bowmore 12 years old is a fine core range whisky if you like peat smoke. It warmes you up and give you a very pleasant after taste.

๐: Gentle peat smoke, pear, a little leather, soft lemon, maybe also some mango
๐: A little warm punch, vanilla, peat smoke, some grass, feels a little watery, some coffee with milk, dark chocolate, acacia honey
๐: A nice medium to long finish of peat smoke, candied ginger, wood, some vanilla sweetness. It does not feel very oily, but the taste stays amazingly long.
I know we can divide whiskies into categories of when you can drink what in which type of weather, time of the year and so on, but I like peated whiskies and can enjoy then all year round and in any weather.
With this Bowmore 12 year old it is the same. It is a nice core range whisky at a fair price and I could sip it every day. Just one of those whiskies you have to have in the cabinet.
