Octomore 4th Release Islay Single Malt Whisky 10 Year Old · 2009 Vintage
In stock
Just the 4th release of 10 year old Octomore from Bruichladdich and the first in nearly 2 years. Aged in a combination of American Oak and Virgin Oak casks, this was peated t0 208 ppm and as always bottled at cask strength and without colouring or filltration.
This is a grown up Octomore, relaxed and refined. What is lost in vitality by being aged for 10 years is more than made up for with a sense of calmness, development and complexity.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep sun-kissed gold, laced with honeyed amber and coppery highlights.
Nose
Wonderful bouquet of peat and fruit, with nectarine and citrus notes and hints of pineapple and mango. A depth of rich sweetness and complexity, vanilla and oak with a nutty, vibrant edge. With age, the fruit comes through more vividly—exotic notes of citrus and minerality that form the spirit’s DNA.
Palate
Salt-kissed and viscous, the palate glides on honeyed richness. Peach, pineapple and mango mingle with dried apricot, wrapped in sweet oak and a measured wisp of smoke. Age has deepened the integration, lending maturity and nuance while preserving vibrant fruit against the peat and oak.
Finish
Oak-drenched finish with coconut and vanilla, followed by tobacco and a gentle smoke. The long cask maturation softens the peat as oak assertions deepen, yielding a poised, lasting warmth and a refined, smoky glow.
