Octomore 15.1, Scottish Barley, Islay Single Malt Whisky, 59.1%

£156.00

Octomore 15.1 is the bold and uncompromising cornerstone of the 15th series of this renowned Islay single malt whisky.

Crafted from 100% Scottish barley and distilled in 2018, this remarkable expression has been aged for five years in a combination of first-fill bourbon barrels and re-charred ex-bourbon casks. Peated to an impressive 108.2 PPM, the 15.1 offers a strikingly balanced yet powerful flavour profile, revealing the raw intensity of earthy peat smoke entwined with the soft sweetness of vanilla custard and charred oak.

With its robust 59.1% ABV, this whisky carries strength, depth, and sophistication, and represents the essence of the Octomore series—an experiment in pushing whisky boundaries. Whether enjoyed neat or with a drop of water to unlock its hidden depths, Octomore 15.1 stands as a testament to the mastery of cask management and the profound influence of peat on whisky, embodying what can only be described as "The Impossible Equation." A truly distinctive dram, Octomore 15.1 is for those who seek the extraordinary in every pour.

Tasting Note: From the very first sip, Octomore 15.1 delivers an unforgettable journey across the senses. On the nose, caramel and vibrant citrus greet you, delicately wrapped in the signature dry peat smoke that Octomore is famous for. Hints of aniseed, vanilla, and tropical fruit notes mingle with whispers of geranium and ginger, creating a rich and evocative aroma. The palate mirrors this complexity, as the initial heat gives way to a harmonious blend of sweet malt, smoky earth, and refreshing bursts of mango, banana, and apricot jam. As a final flourish, the finish lingers with the unmistakable warmth of peat smoke, mingling with vanilla and oak, underscored by a crisp marine freshness.

From the arid plantations on the edge of the Mexican desert, through the rugged glens of the Scottish Highlands, to the undulating vineyards of Cognac in Southwest France, successive generations have been distilling the fermented liquor of agave, barley, grape, cane sugar and other fruits, plants and grains. Enjoyed either immediately – like gin – or after many decades of barrel ageing – like Cognac or whisky. The world of spirits is infinite, fascinating, entertaining, distracting and a giver of great pleasure.
