A surprisingly fruity Octomore, dominated by flavors of peaches and grapes rather than peat. There’s plenty of pepper, to be sure, but it’s a luscious easy-drinking Octomore rather than a head-blaster. Pairs well with: Octomore Ten Years Dialogos. I revisited this thanks to a generous sample from @PBMichiganWolverine and it’s easily worth my previous rating of 4.5, if not higher. Thick, silky flavors that perfectly balance peat and sweet.
