You might know the story of how the devil was chased all the way from Bowmore’s Round Church into the gates of Bowmore Distillery, only to escape in a whisky cask bound for the mainland. What you’ll be less familiar with is the devilishly inspired cask selection for this latest release.
Matured in the finest first fill sherry casks, Oloroso and Pedrox Ximenez. Bowmore’s third, and final, release in the sought after Devil’s Casks series is our most intensely satisfying yet. Marrying spirits matured in both dry Oloroso sherry casks and – for the first time – sweet Pedro Ximenez sherry casks, which bring an incredible intensity and remarkable richness.
“A spellbinding dram rich with fruitcake, chocolate and deliciously dark fruits”
On the eye : Deep mahogany.
Breathe : in a cornucopia of rich, dark, exotic fruits, sultana, mango and raisin, fused with earthy angelica root and treacle toffee.
Sip : the smooth, rounded taste of date oil, chocolate fudge and salted treacle, warmed by orange-laced Aruba coffee.
Savour : the long-lasting finish of smoked fruitcake, blood orange and sea salt.
