Octomore Edition 15.1 showcases Islay’s whisky-making expertise. Bruichladdich Distillery distils this bold and distinctive single malt, pushing the boundaries of peat intensity. This release forms the foundation of the 15th annual Octomore series, highlighting both innovation and tradition.
Scottish Mainland Concerto barley gives this whisky its rich, malty core. The distilling team malt it to an intense 108.2 PPM, creating its signature super-heavily peated character. In 2018, Bruichladdich distilled the spirit using barley from the 2017 harvest. The whisky then matured for five years in first-fill bourbon barrels and re-charred ex-bourbon casks, adding depth and complexity. Bottled at a powerful 59.1% ABV, Octomore 15.1 delivers both strength and sophistication.
Bold aromas rise from the glass. Caramel and citrus lead, followed by dry, earthy peat smoke. Spicy aniseed, vanilla, and smooth custard emerge, mingling with tropical fruit, geranium, and ginger.
On the palate, heat arrives first, balanced by sweet malt and deep, smoky earthiness. Juicy mango, banana, and apricot jam cut through the peat, while vanilla custard and toffee round out the flavours. Adding a drop of water unlocks marine notes and a touch of warm sand.
The finish lingers with peat smoke, vanilla, and sweet charred oak, settling into a fresh, coastal crispness.
Bruichladdich bottles Octomore 15.1 without chill filtration or artificial colouring, ensuring its natural character shines. This whisky suits both peat lovers and collectors looking for something truly distinctive.
Savour it neat to experience its full intensity, or add water to reveal hidden layers. Pair it with strong cheeses, smoked meats, or dark chocolate to enhance the tasting experience.
Octomore 15.1 sets the stage for its counterparts, 15.2 and 15.3, which explore different cask influences and barley origins. Limited in release, this whisky offers a rare chance to own a piece of Octomore’s bold legacy.
Experience the power and precision of Octomore Edition 15.1 – a whisky that defies convention and celebrates the art of peat.
