- Description
- Bruichladdich's youngest Octomore to date at just three years old, distilled in 2016 and matured in virgin oak at 63.5% ABV. Despite its youth, the peated barley (measured at 100+ PPM) and active new wood create surprising depth, challenging the notion that Islay's smoke bombs require age.
