Bowmore 10 Year Old Inspired by Devil's Cask 1L
Lot number: 137-02500
Winning bid: £75
Surely there are few locations more evocative than the shores of Lochindaal, an area positively steeped in rich Scottish folklore. It's no wonder then that Bowmore has a whiff of magic about it (or perhaps that's just the whisky). The oldest distillery on Islay, Bowmore still retains its own floor maltings, and while it can no longer meet all of the busy distillery's requirements, it still contributes a third of the malt used in every mash.
Just because something is old, doesn't mean it's old-fashioned, and Bowmore's eco-friendly heat recovery system not only cuts down on those pesky bills, it also heats the town swimming pool!
Aged in a combination of Sherry and red wine casks, and inspired by the legendary Devil’s Casks series, this 10 Year Old travel retail exclusive pays tribute to the iconic story of the Devil on Islay with its fiery, spicy flavour.
Bottled: September 2016
Age: 10 years old
