The Bowmore 10yo The Devil's Casks Small Batch Release II is a remarkable single malt whisky, hailing from the esteemed Bowmore Distillery on Islay, Scotland. Matured for over 10 years in first-fill sherry casks, this whisky is bottled at a robust 56.3% ABV. It is the second release in The Devil's Casks series, renowned for its exceptional quality and limited availability, with only 6000 bottles produced in 2014. Bowmore Distillery, established in 1779, is Islay's oldest distillery and has a storied history. After experiencing periods of varying quality, the distillery saw a resurgence of excellence under the ownership of Stanley P. Morrison in 1963 and later, the Japanese firm Suntory in 1994. The Devil's Casks Small Batch Release II is steeped in local legend. It is said that the devil once visited the church in Bowmore and was chased through the village into the distillery, where he escaped in a cask of Bowmore whisky bound for the mainland. This whisky's deep ruby hue and illustrious flavor profile are a testament to its exclusive maturation in sherry casks. Aromas of maple syrup, toffee, and dried fruits greet the nose, while sea salt, stewed dark fruit, and walnut whip tantalize the palate, culminating in a long and lingering finish.
