Tasting Notes

Colour: Polished gold.

Nose: An immediate hit of BBQ smoke followed by ginger nut biscuits. Tropical fruits come to the fore before giving way to brown sugar, aniseed, and ripe apple.

Palate: Toasted oak greets the palate, then the softness of worn leather followed by iodine, balanced by praline and brown sugar. An assortment of dried fruits and candied citrus round off the tasting experience.

Finish: Oak brings sweetness and baking spices before being joined by dry, earthy smoke that lingers alongside a gentle herbal note.

About Octomore & Bruichladdich

Octomore is Bruichladdich's most extreme expression — routinely among the most heavily peated whiskies ever produced. Distilled on the southern shore of Islay, it challenges convention at every turn, using extraordinary PPM levels to create whiskies of intense smoke and surprising elegance. This 12 Year Old single cask takes that foundation and adds the unique influence of a Rivesaltes cask — a southern French fortified wine — resulting in a one-of-a-kind expression that will not be repeated.

Perfect For

• Octomore and Bruichladdich collectors seeking rare single cask expressions
• Islay peat enthusiasts who appreciate unusual and exclusive cask finishes
• A landmark addition to any serious whisky collection
