Octomore 15.3

Octomore 15.3 is a single malt Scotch whisky produced by the Bruichladdich distillery on the Isle of Islay. This whisky is renowned for its exceptional level of peat, boasting a phenol content of 307.2 parts per million (PPM), placing it among the peatiest whiskies in the world. Distilled from locally grown barley from a single farm on Islay, Octomore 15.3 is matured for five years in a combination of first-fill bourbon casks and Oloroso sherry casks. This maturation process imparts remarkable complexity and depth to the whisky. On tasting, Octomore 15.3 offers an intense aromatic profile dominated by pronounced peaty notes. On the palate, flavors of orange zest, dried fruit, and caramel mingle with the characteristic smoke, creating a balanced and rich tasting experience. Adding a few drops of water can reveal more fruity nuances and soften the overall character. This whisky, bottled at 61.3% alcohol by volume, is intended for lovers of intensely peaty whiskies and offers a unique sensory experience, reflecting the innovative know-how of the Bruichladdich distillery.
