Words of Whisky (88)

:

Re-tasted blind for the Blind Tasting Competition of the Usquebaugh Society. Still think it is a wonderful dram!
Nose
Peat and sherry, often a lovely combination. This is no exception. A lovely smokey quality, charred oak and ashes. Some dark chocolate, soy and oranges as well. Also some dried and smoked red fruit. The nose is very well balanced.
Taste
Obviously peat and sherry again. But more smokey than medicinal, which I always find a good thing. Mint and aniseed appear as well. As do some chili, chocolate, leather and berries.
Finish
Again leather, but also very ashy with dried oranges and raspberry. LONG!

Tasting Notes by whiskyNotes.be (Sept 02, 2014):

Nose: deep, juicy sherry mixed with sweet peat. Blackcurrants, dates and dark chocolate. Strawberry candy. Flints. Some liquorice and walnuts. Hints of tar and coal smoke, as well as a faint hint of plum-lacquered ribs. The balance is just right.

Mouth: pretty big smoke fills the palate, joined by a rich sweetness. Barbecued pineapple, red berries, chocolate cake with cherries. Really thick and tarry, with traces of earthy notes and peppercorn. A salty edge as well.

Finish: really long, little fruity notes now, just sweet liquorice and smoke.Comments: Bowmore is on a roll – almost all of their new products are good to very good. The Devil’s Cask is the total opposite of Bowmore Tempest, but both are very good at what they do.
