Overview

Jim McEwan's answer to critics who claimed Bruichladdich didn't make peated whisky because they didn't have the skills to do it well. With "heavily peated" whisky starting at 30ppm, let's just call Octomore's 80-308ppm "super heavily peated".

Octomore's young and cask strength spirit should be as current master distiller Adam Hannet has joked, Bruichladdich's most undrinkable whisky: "It's too young, too strong and too peaty." Also known as "The impossible equation"; an equation that the Bruichladdich Distillery has mastered.

Join a series of whisky flights as you drink your way through the first decade or so of Octomore's journey - paired with a current release at each flight!
