Bruichladdich 2009 Eldvatten - 62,6%

Octomore 17.2Octomore 17.2 is the second step in the Seventeen Series and relies on a double wood maturation. The intense smokiness of the malt meets fruity and spicy notes from the cask maturation: strawberry, blackberry and blackcurrant combine with steadily building peat smoke. Pepper and earthy aromas are brightened by lemon zest and lime oil. The influence of port intensifies the fruit and spice without pushing the barley and peat into the background. The result is a rich, lively and harmoniously composed Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky.

The Octomore distillery was founded in 1816 by George Montgomery in Port Charlotte on the Isle of Islay. In 1852 the distillery was taken over by Thomas Pattison and closed in the same year. In 2008 Bruichladdich had plans to reopen Octomore, but these were not realised. Since 2008, however, Bruichladdich has been bottling a heavily peated single malt under the name "Octomore".

Octomore 17.3Octomore 17.3 puts barley, provenance and a sense of place at the centre. This spirit-led bottling combines powerful peat with elegance and nuance. Sweet first fill oak shows itself in salted caramel, smoked apple and toasted coconut. Praline and vanilla cream join in. Deeply charred peat settles over the palate as dry, ashy smoke, while citrus oils and saltiness provide clarity. Over time, spirit, cask and grain come together in a dram that is both powerful and balanced. Phenol level: 132,1 PPM Barley origin: Grown exclusively on a single field of Octomore Farm on Islay Cask maturation: Cuvée of first fill bourbon casks and second fill casks from Ribera del Duero, Sauternes, ice wine and Syrah
