Octomore 14.3 70cl 61.4°

With its 214.2 ppm*, this Octomore 14.3 is the most peaty expression of the range.

It is made from Concerto barley grown on the Octomore farm, located 3 kilometres south of the Bruichladdich distillery which gives its name to the range, and harvested in 2016.

This Single Malt aged for 5 years at 50% in first-fill American whiskey barrels and 50% in second-fill wine barrels. It demonstrates a combination of heavy and frank peat with unmistakable soft and sweet aromas of cookies, caramel and vanilla.
*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.
