Bruichladdich Octomore 16.3 Single Malt Whisky 61.6% ABv 700ml

Octomore 16.3 Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700ml
100% Islay Barley · 274 PPM · 61.6% ABV

Octomore 16.3 is Islay provenance in its purest form. Distilled from 100% Islay-grown Concerto barley harvested from Octomore Farm, this edition captures the raw Atlantic landscape in the glass – where land, smoke and sea meet. Peated to an astonishing 274 PPM, it ranks among the world’s most heavily peated whiskies, yet remains remarkably refined and beautifully structured.

Matured entirely on Islay in a combination of first-fill bourbon, second-fill wine and virgin oak casks, Octomore 16.3 delivers layers of sweetness, smoke and oak-driven complexity. Bottled at natural cask strength, non-chill filtered and of natural colour, it is a bold, unapologetic celebration of Islay character.

Tasting Profile

• Nose: Sweet, earthy peat smoke, honeyed malt and ripe orchard fruits, with notes of toasted oak, vanilla cream and coastal sea breeze.

• Palate: Intense waves of peat, balanced by toffee, citrus, oak spice and sea salt; powerful yet controlled.

• Finish: Long, warming and smoky, with charred oak, lingering sweetness and a persistent maritime influence.
