Bruichladdich Octomore 16.1 Edition Super Heavily Peated Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky (Pre-Order)
Bruichladdich Octomore 16.1 Edition Super Heavily Peated Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky is born from the rugged shores of Islay, yet crafted with 100% Scottish Mainland Concerto Barley. Distilled in 2019 from the 2018 harvest and matured for 5 years in first-fill bourbon barrels, it carries an astonishing peat level of 101.4 PPM, bottled at a bold 59.3% ABV. This whisky sets the benchmark for the Octomore 16 series, showcasing both power and poise in equal measure.
From the first pour, aromas of sea spray and orchard fruit rise through a veil of smoke, lifted by delicate floral hints of heather and camomile. The palate reveals salted caramel, honeyed melon, apricot, and layers of toffee, chocolate, and coconut, all wrapped in the soft minerality that defines Islay. Each sip builds with cinnamon spice, star anise, and smoky paprika before settling into a long, lingering finish of black pepper, sea salt, and the signature Octomore peat smoke.
Complex, bold, yet remarkably refined, Octomore 16.1 is more than just whisky—it is an experience for those who seek intensity without compromise. Best enjoyed neat to appreciate its full depth, or with a drop of water to unlock hidden layers of sweetness and smoke, this spun-gold dram embodies the unorthodox spirit of Octomore while remaining a timeless reference point in peated Scotch.
