]]> The distillery was founded in 1965 and is located at the compound of a former printing house in the Highlands. It lays in an industry area of Alexandria at the southern edge of the Loch Lomond. The distillery is the only distillery that can offer a Single Blend, because there is a grain distillery at the compound as well.

Nose
The whisky opens with aromas of malt sugar and light peat smoke. Layers of green fruit, rose, geranium, eucalyptus and apricot layer on top. Marzipan, ginger nut cookies as well as honeyed melon can also be perceived. The malty, fruity character of Octomore 13.3 then builds on this.
Taste 
Soft and delicate on the palate, sweet honey and brown sugar make their presence felt. Gentle peat smoke. The second sip brings shellfish and lemon peel into a maritime combination with malty cookie, marzipan and coconut. The peat smoke has a light, ashy character, but is gentle enough to allow the subtle floral malt notes to come through.
Finish
A maritime character develops. The smoke is increasing on the palate and is accompanied by honey, lemon and marzipan. The sweet end is fruity traces of peach and pear compote.

]]> The distillery was founded in 1816 by George Montgomery. It is located on the island Islay in Port Charlotte. 1852 the distillery was taken over by Thomas Pattinson and got shut down in the same year. Although there were plans in 2008 to reopen the distillery by Bruichladdich, they were not realised. But since the same year Bruichladdich is bottling a heavy peated Single Malt called Octomore.
