When this old thread surfaced I decided to try some of the 43% ABV Bowmore 12 YO I picked up a few years ago. It's not in an "old dumpy brown bottle with the gold-trimmed label" but it is a litre bottle obtainable only at duty-free stores.
Very nice.
A great compliment to my cigar without an overwhelming amount of its own smoke. One of my favorite "lighter" Islays.
I must get a recent 40% ABV 12 YO and do a side-by-side before I finish this bottle.

Port on the menu tomorrow.
