Arran The Devil's Punch Bowl Chapter 2
Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Chapter 2 of the Devil´is Punch Bowl is a true contrast of light and shade hence the title "Angels & Devils". The 1997 & 1998 hogsheads I have chosen provide the foundation for this whisky and add a rich amd satisfyring depth. These are the finest ex-Oloroso Spanish oak casks and their influence is unmistakable with a distinctive spicy character and notes of cigar box and dark chocolate. It the sherry casks are the darkness than the 2002 barrels bring a ray of sunshine to proceedings with soft vanilla notes and more of the typical Arran citrus emerging, especially with a dash of water. Finally, our oldest Peated Arran casks from 2004 bring an earthiness not found in other releases of The Arran Malt and add further complexity to this intriguing concoction.
