Octomore 13.1 59.2% 700ml

Octomore 13.1 is as youthful and dynamic as its super-heavily peated predecessors. Distilled patiently from the 2015 harvest of 100% Scottish Mainland barley, this single malt is malted to a stratospheric 137.3 PPM and matured in the highest quality American oak casks.

Synonyms with the classic Octomore .1 style. Hidden peat smoke allows the floral, malty spirit and the sweet American oak to combine in perfect harmony, before dry, earthy smoke sweeps across the palate.

The Bruichladdich Octomore 13.1 Edition offers a golden Hebridean sands colour and a viscous texture on the palate. The flavour profile is characterised by densely smoked grain, reminiscent of smoked granola and honeyed fruit. A deeper exploration reveals notes of smoked apricot jam, barley flour, peat embers, and burnt heather, balanced with a hint of gooseberry citrus and sweet Turkish delight. As the finish approaches, the flavours of oak chips, sugared almonds, and chocolate-limes are complemented by a touch of spicy aniseed.
