DOUBLE THE DEVIL

You’ll 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 – so it’s said – 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.

First the storm ... then the calm.

Matured in first-fill ex-bourbon casks, our Master Blender has selected a range of casks that create a tropical storm for the sixth series. One moment your face is washed by the full force of a typhoon, with its salty sea tang. Then next you feel the warmth of the sun’s golden rays on your skin as the clouds disperse and a magical calm descends. Welcome to Islay, where the seasons, moods and flavours all collide.

So far we have released six batches of the Tempest Batch numbers 1 (2009), 2 (2010), 3 (2011), 4 (2012), 5 (2014) and 6 (2015).

Black Rock is described as a rich, single malt and is named after the jagged outcrop visible from the distillery, which is situated on the shores of Loch Indaal. The spirit is matured in first-fill, ex-Spanish sherry casks to give it a balanced flavour of peat smoke, treacle toffee and orange.

Gold Reef is matured in first-fill, ex-bourbon casks, which gives it deep golden hues and flavours of vanilla, citrus fruits and coconut.

Inspired by the beaches of The Big Strand and Laggan Bay, which are just south of the Bowmore Distillery, White Sands 17 Year Old has, as the name suggests, been matured for 17 years in Bowmore’s No.1 Vaults – said to be the oldest maturation warehouses in Scotland. The end result are notes of rich and ripe exotic fruits blended with malty sweetness and warm peat smoke.
