Bowmore Devil Cask III 700ML

The nose is an intricate dance of sherried fruit and peated malt. Brine, blood orange and a touch of vanilla add to the complexity. There’s lots going on here, but it doesn’t feel busy. Bowmore’s signature peat coats your tongue after an initial sting of alcohol. Both stewed red fruits and rich dried fruits emerge from behind a light layer of ashy smoke and vanilla. Towards the back palate, freshly squeezed orange juice provides a touch of brightness. The smoke slightly intensifies in the long finish, along with remnants of mulled red wine.
