This is the first release in the Vault Edit1°n series from Bowmore distillery, launched in november 2016. The series explores four of the essential characteristics of Bowmore whisky after maturation in the legendary N°1 Vaults , in this case Atlantic Sea Salt . The other yearly releases will explore peat smoke, vanilla sweetness and citrus fruits.

Bowmore Vaults Edition is matured in ex-bourbon casks and bottled at high strength.
