About Bruichladdich Octomore Edition: 15.3/ 307.2 PPM - Single Malt Scotch Whisky - 2024 Release

Octomore 15.3 brings together heavy-weight peating levels and variable harvests from one singular farm on Islay. Complex, robust and bursting with character. Formidable smoke is countered by ripe fruit from its patient distillation, showcasing both incomporable flavour and provenance. Kissed by salty sea spray, the homegrown Islay barley imparts not only malty sweetness but evokes a true sense of place. Matured in first fill bourbon casks and first fill Oloroso hogsheads.

Malted to 307.2PPM.

Bottled at 61.3%abv.

Aged 5 years.

15.3 is the second most heavily peated whisky Bruichladdich Distillery has ever released to date. The most heavily peated was Octomore Masterclass 8.3 Edition, released in 2017 measuring a heavy weight of 309PPM.

Nose: Smoked cinder toffee, rich malted Islay barley sugar and honey come to the fore, balanced with fresh citrus. Dried fruit and crushed seashells mingle with Octomore’s heady peat smoke, with cloves, toasted nuts and a hint of coconut adding depth and complexity. Butterscotch, brown sugar and warm bread pave the way for the cereal-forward single malt whisky.

Palate: High strength yet exceptionally soft in texture, Octomore 15.3 is unmistakably rounded and viscous. Butterscotch and creamy vanilla enhance its smooth character, punctuated with dried fruit and sweet orange zest. Toasted oak and locally grown barley sugar are underpinned with waves of dry smoke.

Finish: Burnt sugar, coconut, and delicate sea spray linger on the finish, with the lasting impression of earthy peat smoke.
