Octomore 15.1 – 59,1%

Octomore 15.1

• 100% Scottish barley (Concerto)
• 108.2 ppm
• Bottled at 59.1% vol.
• Not chill-filtered, no colorings
• Five years of maturation in first fill bourbon and recharred bourbon barrels

The maturation of the 15.1 (the .1 is always the backbone of each series) took place in a combination of first-fill bourbon casks and recharred ex-bourbon casks with the aim of extracting the maximum flavours and character from the wood.
A true Octomore – expressive and full of character with an intense palette of flavours ranging from vanilla-sweet to intensely smoky.
