Beam Suntory Launches Limited-Edition Bowmore 1965 Precious Metals Exclusively to Global Travel Retail
LONDON, March 10, 2022, /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/--

Beam Suntory is thrilled to introduce the limited-edition Bowmore(TM)1965 
Precious Metals, designed by master craftsman John Galvin, exclusively to 
Global Travel Retail.

Inspired by the rich heritage of Bowmore's remote island home in Islay for over 
240 years, John Galvin captured centuries of tradition to create four 
individual presentation boxes that pay homage to legendary craftsmanship and 
the distillery's legacy.  

Each handcrafted oak box is adorned with a brass plaque made from the former 
spirit safe, dating back to 1924. 
Bowmore 1965 Precious Metals celebrates the evolution of the distillery as the 
1960s represent the golden age of Bowmore, when some of the brand's most 
prolific and admired whiskies were crafted. Today, these whiskies are scarce, 
and the spirits are limited to only a handful of casks.

Radiating a shimmering amber hue, Bowmore 1965 has been elevated to legendary 
status through maturation showcasing the iconic fruit notes and deep flavour 
that are revered in Bowmore single malts. On the nose, this whisky offers 
elegant bursts of fragrant fruits, sweet bees wax and intense dark chocolate, 
developing into burnt heather and a fresh spring flower finish. Perfectly 
balanced with a touch of jasmine, dried fruit and apricots, this single malt is 
best savoured neat.

Each of the four bottles are available at a RRSP of $50,000, with each 
individual box being a bespoke collectable and artifact capturing over 240 
years of heritage. The bottle will also be accompanied by a certificate of 
authenticity and numbered to preserve their rarity.

The bespoke one-off art pieces represent the ultimate pathway into the Bowmore 
legacy for whisky collectors worldwide and will be available to travellers at 
airports in Dubai, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Amsterdam.
The first bottle will become available at the Taipei Downtown DF store from 
11th March 2022. 

Manuel Gonzalez, Marketing Director of Global Travel Retail for Beam Suntory, 
said: "We're delighted to present the exquisite limited-edition Bowmore 1965 
Precious Metals exclusively to Global Travel Retail. Master craftsman John 
Galvin captured the essence of the Bowmore distillery and has a proven track 
record of designing incredibly desirable pieces for collectors. With only four 
bottles available worldwide, our customers are invited to get their hands on 
unique art that immortalizes the Bowmore craftsmanship and celebrates the 
brand's rich heritage."
