I find the great use Oloroso to mature this liquid brings out your tylical smoke, pear, Oak and toffee flavours. This liquid is complex from the nose to the finish. Love smelling this dram all day long. I like one cube of ice to melt the burn a bit while searching for the flavours past the hest and smoke. Glad i did as i found a mixture of sweet strawberries amd spices. The .2 of any generation provides me with dessert ideas. In the palate i have Strawberry Cobbler before a smoky finish.

Aye! Another stupendous showing for the Octomore Series. 13.1 delivers yet again a smoky peary liquid with a rise of flavours as sip away. Again once you move through the smoke fulled door the smokey peaty flavours are no longer the point of interest. Creamy tastes of dark chocolate and orange will fill your palate. Down right delicious.

Knob Creek 12 Year Small Batch Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed March 23, 2023 (edited March 1, 2024)This liquid is not your regualar ‘worthers’ bourbon. It is powerful and deep at its 100 proof yet bery smooth. Spices jump right from the nose to the forst sip. It’s a delight showing orange zest flavours, baking spices, ending with a buttery short bread finish. I find so many bourbons are all to frequently nestled in a narrow bandwidth of flavour. This gem is a stand alone goodness. -
Like all Octomors the 10.1 is a beauty. Starting out with a smoky, peaty it lands a great punch. But once you add an ice cube the immediate smokeiness subsides and wonderful flavours erupt. Right away a beutiful salted licorice flavor tantalizes your tongue. A creaminess emerges leaving a lingering candied caremal apple flavour as the finish. This liquid is an experience all on its own. Much different than other Octomores. Well done 10.1!!!!
