Another wonderful Octomore, the 9.1 has been released, this time it has been distilled in 2012 using 100% Scottish Concerto barley.
In typical Bruichladdich, Octomore style, this newest addition is peated to a bonfire lip smacking 156 PPM!
Bottled at a wonderful cask strength 59.1% ABV, so much more room for teasing those intense flavours out with a touch of water.
This edition has been matured in first fill American oak casks, and of course none chill filtered and natural colouring – naturally!
Nose: Hot bonfire embers, fresh pine and grapes.
Palate: Palate smacking smoke and charcoal, alpine forests and dried apricots.
Finish: A long and peppery smoke dissipates into ginger and oak.
