Production of the 12 Years Old from Bowmore

The production of 12 Years Old - Bowmore is based on a careful selection of top-quality ingredients. The whisky is made from the finest Scottish barley, which is traditionally processed using the malting method. The water used in the quality process comes from the clear Firth of Clyde. After malting, mashing takes place, where the malt is combined with warm water. The resulting sugar is transferred to fermentation, in which yeast plays its important role. Distillation occurs in pot stills, a traditional method that enhances the unique character of the whisky. After double distillation, the whisky ages for at least 12 years in selected old oak casks that previously held bourbon or sherry. This is how the whisky gains its deep aromas and full, complex structure that makes this drop so special.
