When the folk of Bowmore formed an angry mob to chase the devil out of the church (which is of course round, offering him nowhere to hide), down the road and through the distillery, it was assumed that he must have made his escape in a cask heading to the mainland aboard the Maid of Islay. Some first fill sherry casks at Bowmore make you wonder though, how can whisky be so devilishly delicious? This third and final Devil's Casks release uses both oloroso and Pedro Ximénez casks for the first time.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Corinth raisins, salted caramel, melted chocolate, sticky prunes and flamed orange peel.
More sea salt and chocolate, candied peels, rich dark fruits, gentle smoke and spices.
Long with complex coffee and cherry notes.

The complete namn should be: Bowmore The Devils Cask III - Double the devil - triple the price...
Bowmore have gone down in my estimation very fast in the last year...just out to rip everyone off...terrible that they should stoop so low to get as much money out of people as possible...should all boycott the bowmore brand for a year and see how they like that
First it was the Mizunara cask, now this. Bowmore are attempting to rip off the customer. But, when people, some on this very website, buy these bottles and sell them auction for double or triple the price, hard to blame Bowmore for wanting a bit of that money.
I did a search and found this: 'The distillery is owned by Morrison Bowmore Distillers Ltd, a holding company owned by Japanese drinks company Suntory' Is the tail wagging the dog?
