Octomore EDITION: 16.1 Super Heavily Peated Islay Single Malt Release 2025 59,3% Vol. 0,7l

The Octomore EDITION: 16.1 Super Heavily Peated Islay Single Malt Release 2025 59.3% ABV 0.7 L is the latest interpretation of Bruichladdich's legendary Octomore series and ranks among the most intensely peated whiskies in the world. The .1 bottlings are considered the purest expression of their respective vintages, showcasing the unadulterated character of the raw material, distillation, and cask maturation. For Edition 16.1, only 100% Scottish Concerto barley from the mainland was used. With an impressive phenol content of 101.4 PPM and five years of maturation in first-fill bourbon casks, this Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky embodies the characteristic combination of powerful peat smoke and surprising elegance.

`.1` Distilled in 2019 from the 2018 barley harvest, the Octomore 16.1, despite its heavy peat content, displays a remarkable balance between smoke, fruit, and sweetness. Maturation in new bourbon casks lends it additional complexity, resulting in a multifaceted interplay of aromas including vanilla, honey, fruit, and maritime notes. This Super Heavily Peated Edition is bottled at a robust 59.3% ABV, without chill filtration or added coloring. The premium 700ml bottle makes this bottling a highly sought-after collector's item and a highlight for connoisseurs of intense Islay whiskies.
