Bowmore Legend

fairly easy on the nose for an islay. there is the peat, and the sea air, but also Lemon and Orange. On the taste there is a pleasant amount of peat, fresh citrus, and after that, a sweetness like a sweet white wine. Adding a few drops of water seems to dull the peat a bit, and accenting the sweetness and lemon. the finish is not long and a bit disappointing. Overall price/money a very nice Islay.

I personally loved it. A lot of taste and character but as with all whisky every bottle is a surprise. It goes well with my cigars I buy (as long as you don't go something too over powering.) It was a decent price when I bought it . I loved it. It's something I use on the regular when I want to really relax or have a good cigar. Will not disappoint.

There's nothing legendary here, and perhaps a more apropos name would have been Bowmore Forget. In fact I'm still not sure what the hell I just tasted, though in complete candor the closest description I can use is: cardboard with the faintest hints of smoke and citrus. This is definitely Bowmore's weakest offering and best skipped over. Cheers!

nose-salty , mild peat , sweet green apples , citrus palate- vanilla , creamy lemon , little peat ,medium body finish- medium to short .little oak spice it's not very complex but enjoyable . i have had my bottle for more than 2 years and not even half way through . i would pay a bit more and buy the 12yr ahead of this .

Very little is left to the imagination with this dram. Smoke. Lemon. Honey. That's it. While not a stunner, it's one I'll happily drink out of a rocks glass when I'm eating greasy food. I expect nothing more of this, which is probably for the best.

Do I like it? Yes I do. When the quality of the whiskey is higher than the price, I love it. A great way for someone who wants to try a single malt without playing a lot, this is a great choice. Love the peat and fruit balance.
