Octomore is the world's most routinely heavily-peated single malt whisky, produced by Bruichladdich distillery on the Isle of Islay.
The first distillation of Octomore took place in September 2002, with the first bottling following in 2008. Current owner Remy Cointreau has continued the practice.
Octomore single malt has defied received whisky wisdom since its launch in 2008. Matured for five years, always super-heavily peated and bottled close to cask strength, Octomore's surprising elegance has led us to define it as “The Impossible Equation”.
Sometimes bottled bold and brazen at 5 years old, always super-heavily peated and bottled close to cask strength, Octomore's surprising elegance has led us to define it as “The Impossible Equation”.
Bruichladdich has weathered its fair share of criticism about Octomore being a gimmick: it's often five-year-old spirit (though occasionally a few years older), released at a premium price point, with every release featuring an unusually highly peated malt (100+ PPM prior to distillation.)
