Octomore Single Cask Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 12 Year Old
In stock
Octomore Single Malt Scotch Whisky explores the influence of terroir, cask management and experimental peat levels, pushing the boundaries of whisky making to their extremes. Single casks of this ilk are very rare and in high demand.
This Octomore Single Cask is matured and bottled exclusively on Islay and hand selected by our Master Blender Adam Hannett. The barley varietal, cask type, ABV, PPM and vintage, are specific to each cask, meaning this limited bottling cannot be repeated.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Polished gold.
Nose
An immediate hit of BBQ smoke followed by ginger nut biscuits.Tropical fruits come to the fore before giving way to brown sugar, aniseed and ripe apple.
Palate
Toasted oak greets the palate. Then the softness of worn leather followed by iodine and balanced by praline and brown sugar. An assortment of dried fruits and candied citrus round off the tasting experience.
Finish
The oak brings sweetness and baking spices before being joined by dry. earthy smoke that lingers on alongside a gentle herbal note.
