Bowmore 50 Year Old 1961 Single Malt Scotch Whisky

A remarkable offering from Bowmore, this single malt was distilled in December 1961 and matured for an impressive 50 years in two ex-bourbon hogsheads. The bottle was meticulously hand-blown by Glasstorm, while the burr elm display cabinet was crafted by Peter Toaig. Adding to its artistry, the silver neck stopper and collar were fashioned by the skilled hands of Thomas Fattorini.
