Bruichladdich Octomore 14.2
$246.49
Bottled at 57.7% this Octomore release was dstilled from 100% Scottish mainland barley and peated to 128.9 PPM, matured in First fill Oloroso hogsheads (40%). First fill Amarone casks (16%). Second Fill Amarone casks (44%). Produced from barley grown in 2017, distilled in 2017, and bottled at 5 years of age.
Producer Description
"With over 200 different cask types in the warehouses, Head Distiller, Adam Hannett, has selected casks that have previously held Oloroso and Amarone – with the distinct sweetness and nuttiness of this combination creating an exceptional single malt. Hailing from the renowned wine regions of Spain and Italy respectively, the spirit is then brought together in French oak, adding remarkable depth and complexity to the single malt. Octomore’s signature peak smoke notoriously pairs well with Oloroso sherry casks, with the influence of the wood adding a robust, savoury flavour to the final spirit. The oak from the Amarone casks also has a significant impact on the spirit, imparting rich, red fruit notes - giving structure and cohesion to the 14.2. "

$273.74
Distilled in 2017 from Islay barley harvested in 2016, this heavily peated Bruichladdich has been bottled at 61.4% after maturing in First Fill Ex-Bourbon and Refill Wine Casks. 214.2ppm
Producer Description
"The Islay barley used in Octomore 14.3, grown just two miles from the distillery on Octomore farm, delivers a cereal-forward single malt – celebrating the profound impact of the natural, raw ingredient and the renaissance of the farming community who grew it. Head Distiller, Adam Hannett, has expertly coaxed the flavour from the Islay barley in this high-provenance single malt. Matured in a combination of first-fill ex-American whiskey casks and second-fill wine casks, the oak influences but never dominates the grain - capturing the terroir and unique flavour of the Islay barley. Aromas of hot, sweet mash are unmistakable on the nose, with the soft, biscuit notes of the malted barley complementing the earthy peat smoke. While smouldering peat lingers, creamy porridge and cereal notes of the Islay barley are balanced with butterscotch, honeycomb and a hint of vanilla."
