Octomore 17 Series

This annual release is a bold exploration of smoke, time and strength. Octomore isn’t whisky, it’s the answer to the question: “What if?”.

17 Series

17.1

£143 | 59.7% ABV

The .1 expression is always matured in bourbon or American whiskey barrels but each year the flavour profile changes, showcasing the impact that terroir and the shifting weather patterns of Islay’s rugged coast have on a single malt matured for its whole life at Bruichladdich Distillery.

17.2

£158 | 59.5% ABV

Octomore 17.2 is distilled from the same batch of 100% Scottish mainland concerto barley as the .1 expression. But instead of being matured in bourbon barrels, it has spent time in French oak that matured Californian red wine then bourbon, then Octomore. The spirit was then finished in first-fill port barriques.
