Octomore 14.2 70cl 57.7°

Octomore 14.2 is made from 100% Scottish Concerto barley harvested in 2016. It is then aged for 5 years in a combination of first fill Oloroso Sherry barrels (40%), first fill (16 %) and second fill (44%) Amarone red wine barrels.

Non chill-filtered and without the addition of caramel colouring, this 2017 vintage is dedicated to the exploration of the barrel with a deep and complex expression of sweet flavours of grilled fruits mixed with the characteristic peat smoke of Octomore with its 128.9 ppm *.

*PPM - parts per million - of phenolic compounds, measure the impact of oily peat smoke which is deposited on germinated barley during drying. The longer this time, the greater the ppm value. An already well-peated Islay whiskey is around 40-50ppm. But let's never forget the particularities of each distillery in terms of the mouthfeel of the whisky.
