Octomore 14.3
Single Malt
Octomore // Islay, Scotland
RARE
The Octomore series from Bruichladdich features super heavily-peated single malt whiskies. One of three offerings in the 14th edition, 14.3 is made with 100% Concerto malted barley just like the other two. However, the barley used here is grown just two miles from Bruichladdich Distillery on Islay.
It was malted to 214.2 ppm and was distilled in 2017 from the 2016 harvest. Matured for 5 years in a combination of first-fill American whiskey casks and second-fill wine casks, it was then bottled without chill-filtration or added color at a cask strength of 61.4% ABV.
