The Octomore 11 Has Arrived

by Daniel Galyean

The 11th series of the world’s most heavily peated whisky has arrived. The Octomore super heavily peated single malt whisky has defied traditional whisky wisdom since its conception. Now reaching its 11th series, each edition is an organoleptic reward for risks taken.

OCTOMORE 11.1
SCOTTISH BARLEY
Exposing the structural brilliance of our pure, unadulterated Octomore spirit, our 11.1 edition is powerful, understated and vibrant. After 5 years in first fill ex-American oak casks, expect smoke, tropical fruit & floral notes.

OCTOMORE 11.2
EX-PAUILLAC + ST. JULIEN
Building on the Scottish barley distilled spirit of the .1 edition, this alluring single malt has spent time in ex-American oak casks and ex-red wine casks from the finest wine-making regions in France. Expect round, rich, dried fruit notes.

OCTOMORE 11.3
ISLAY BARLEY
Distilled from barley grown on Octomore farm itself, this single vintage, single estate, single malt is 5 years old, and matured exclusively in ex-American oak casks. Expect maritime citrus, burnt heather, toffee and malt sugar.

OCTOMORE 1OYO
EX-BOURBON + VIRGIN OAK
On the palate; peach, ripe pineapple and mango, dried apricot and peach notes are beautifully weighed against the smoke and oak. The extra age and combination of casks bring a level of maturity to this calmer, deeper expression.
