Bruichladdich Octomore 8 Year Old 10.2 Whisky

Octomore 10.2 stands in stark contrast to its 10.1 counterpart, epitomising sheer opulence. Extended maturation, exceptional cask pedigree, and an unparalleled fusion of sweet tropical fruit and smoke define its character.

• Pale straw in colour
• Whiffs of toasted oak, smouldering peat, and ripe nectarine give way to notes of passion fruit and lemon syrup
• Luxuriously rich and oily, with subtle oak-induced dryness
• The palate offers sugary sweetness and fruitiness, featuring peaches and Jelly Babies
• Elegantly balanced by a backdrop of dry smoke
• The timeless Octomore combination of sweetness and smokiness unfolds within the embrace of toasted oak
• Lingering notes of toasted oak and smoke, harmonised by sweet honey, orange, and hints of clove

This Bruichladdich Octomore 8 year old 10.2 whisky is the tenth series. It defies conventions and beckons you to abandon preconceptions. It is a complex, multi-layered, and irresistibly captivating expression.

Enhancing the inherent brilliance of this super heavily peated spirit, Octomore 10.2 marries bourbon barrels with Sauternes casks. These esteemed casks, having been filled thrice with French sweet wine by a renowned chateau, have mellowed, thus tempering their influence on the ensuing spirit. The interplay of softer smoke and oak achieves a delicate balance, accentuated by tropical fruit notes.
