Arran The Devil’s Punch Bowl Chapter III The Fiendish Finale | 53.4% 700ml

The Devil’s Punch Bowl Chapter III is a limited edition expression of The Arran single malt inspired by the glacial hollow ‘Coire na Ciche’ whose sinister presence dominates the north-east coast of Arran.åÊThe distillery’s fiendish Distiller James MacTaggart has perused the darkest corners of the warehouses one final time to hand pick the finest casks for the third and final release of this infernal trilogy of devilish drams. Casks across a range of ages and types have been chosen to create perhaps the most distinctive Devils Punch Bowl Yet.”For Chapter III of the Devil’s Punch Bowl I have chosen a brooding selection of Arran’s finest aged Oloroso Sherry Butts which sets the scene for the final performance. Notes of distinctive dark chocolate and dried fruits give satisfying depth and provideåÊ the ideal foundation for the last dram with the devil. The inclusion of French Oak Barriques adds a rich layer of spice and toasted oak to proceedings while the Bourbon Barrels bring the sweetness of honey and vanilla. This final flourish of the Punch Bowl brings the curtain down in dramatic style” – James MacTaggart (Master Distiller)===Tasting NotesNose – Aromatic, fresh peach and citrus, earthy notes.Palate -åÊWarming with bold vanilla and cinnamon, sweet orange with floral hints and a touch a pepper spice.Finish -åÊVery long with warming spice.
