Octomore 16.1 - 5 y.o. - Release 2025
Special features: The Octomore 16.1 is an extraordinary single malt whisky from the renowned Bruichladdich Distillery on Islay. This 5-year-old whisky was distilled from 100% Scottish Concerto barley and peated to an impressive 101.4 ppm. It was matured in first-fill bourbon casks, resulting in a harmonious balance between intense peat aromas and a surprising softness. It was bottled at 59.3% ABV. As is customary with Octomore, the distillery completely forgoes chill filtration and coloring to preserve the whisky's natural character.
Tasting Notes:
- Nose: A fascinating opening with sea freshness and orchard fruits, enveloped by Octomore's delicate peat smoke.
- Palate: Elegant peat smoke, salted caramel, and honey-sweet melon with accents of apricot, malt sugar, cinnamon, and star anise.
- Finish: Very long-lasting, with plenty of peat smoke and facets of black pepper and sticky toffee, complemented by sea salt and a complex finale.
Distillery/Bottler: The Bruichladdich Distillery was founded in 1881 and is located on the western shore of Loch Indaal on the Scottish island of Islay. Known for its experimental bottlings, it produces, among other things, the Octomore series, which is famous for its extremely high peat levels. Since 2012, the distillery has been part of the LVMH group.
