2025 Octomore (Bruichladdich) Edition 16.1 “The Reference” 5 Year Old Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml) $204.99 View
16.1 is crafted using 100% Scottish Mainland Concerto Barley, malted to 101.4 PPM and aged in cask for 5 years, with an ABV of 59.3%. This elegant liquid is matured in first-fill bourbon barrels, bringing forth intense peat smoke with surprising delicacy. Salted caramel, honeyed melon and apricot lead into chocolate and coconut, accompanied by a soft wave of earthy minerality and lingering smoke.
2025 Octomore (Bruichladdich) Edition 16.2 “Cask Aced” 5 Year Old Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml) $239.99 View
The .2 expression offers a direct comparison to the .1, using the same malted barley with a different maturation profile, predominantly European Wine and/or Cognac casks. Produced from 100% Concerto barley grown on the Scottish mainland. It was malted to 101.4 ppm. The whisky was matured for 5 years in first-fill bourbon casks before being bottled at 59.3% vol. without chill-filtering and in its natural colour.
2025 Octomore (Bruichladdich) Edition 16.3 “Octomore Farm Islay Barley” 5 Year Old Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml) $269.99 View
The .3 expression is an ultra-high provenance single malt, exploring the influence of barley grown exclusively in a single field on Octomore Farm, Islay. The whisky’s nickname gives it away: the 16.3 was produced entirely from Concerto barley grown on the Church Field of Octomore Farm on Islay. It was malted to 189.5 ppm and the whisky was matured for 5 years entirely in Bourbon, Sauternes and Pedro Ximénez casks. The Octomore 16.3 was bottled at an impressive 61.6% vol. without chill-filtering and without the addition of colouring.
