Distilled in November 1968 and matured for 54 years in the legendary No.1 Vaults, this release is a true testament to the artistry of patience, precision, and natural ageing.
Created in collaboration with Aston Martin, ARC 54 is as much a design statement as it is a whisky.
The bespoke handblown decanter, inspired by the aerodynamic flow of the Aston Martin Valkyrie, captures both movement and stillness in its sculptural form, paying tribute to a shared legacy of innovation and craftsmanship.
The whisky glows with a rich golden hue, offering aromas of vanilla, buttery shortbread, mango, and peach, complemented by subtle notes of toasted oak, orange zest, and eucalyptus mint.
On the palate, green apple, bergamot, and lime meet salted caramel, soft florals, and warming ginger, with a gentle touch of Islay peat smoke lingering elegantly.
With just 130 decanters available worldwide, Bowmore ARC 54 presents a rare opportunity to acquire a profound expression of both history and vision.
Available from select retailers from April 3, 2025. Price on request.
