Bowmore Devil's Cask Whisky

One of the most sought after whiskies of 2013 is back for another brief appearance. Bowmore Devil's Casks Whiskey caught the attention of many with its first batch and the second is just as special. It's again been matured in first fill sherry casks, giving it a unique, rich flavor. The first recorded distillery on Islay is said to only be providing 90 cases of batch 2, so keep your eyes peeled.($65)

Looks good. Too bad they only had one bottle to shoot. Pretty good photoshop work, but geesh...

Unfortunately I am not a fan of Islays. Too much peat for me.

Bowmore is lighter on peat than
the big three. Plus, this sounds
like it'll be similar to Glendronach.
is the the sherry butt a rerack?

10 years in first-fill sherry? No blending of bourbon-matured whisky? That's a lot of sherry. Might be very interesting.

They do pack a wallop. Took me a while to get used to them.

A Scottish friend suggested using a bit more water than one would otherwise do.

Anybody tried this one? The price isn't bad.
