The Octomore series is a powerful illustration of the art of the master distiller with each bottling necessarily unique, limited and never to be reproduced. Each individual expression is hand-crafted by the Progressive Hebridean Distiller’s of Bruichladdich on the remote island of Islay. For Octomore 8.1, the Scottish grown barley is peated to a heavy-weight 167ppm. Distilled in 2008 and aged for eight years in 100% first fill American oak casks. Bottled at 59.3% ABV. No added colouring and non-chill filtered.
