- Description
- Bowmore's second Devil's Casks release, a 10-year-old Islay single malt aged exclusively in first-fill sherry casks, delivering a distinctive ruby hue and pronounced sweet-savory character. The sherry cask influence dominates with dried fruits, toffee, and hints of chocolate, while Bowmore's subtle peat smoke threads through the mid-palate. The texture is rich and viscous, with a long, warm finish balancing sweetness and smoke. Ideal for those who enjoy sherry-matured Islay whiskies with depth beyond traditional peated expressions.
