Bruichladdich Octomore 14.2 Edition 700mL is an intensely peated Islay single malt Scotch whisky that showcases the distillery's mastery of heavily peated spirit. Matured in European oak casks, this exceptional expression delivers Octomore's signature earthy smoke alongside remarkable complexity and depth, available to buy now online in Australia.

Appearance

Deep amber with burnished copper highlights, this whisky displays excellent clarity and viscosity in the glass. The spirit's rich colour reflects its time in European oak, creating attractive legs that slowly cascade down the sides, indicating its full-bodied character and substantial mouthfeel.

Aroma

The nose is powerfully complex, opening with leather, prunes and red currants alongside rich malted barley. Layers of toasted oak emerge with hints of cinnamon, crisp green apple and black pepper. The European oak influence brings sophisticated wood spices, whilst Octomore's characteristic earthy peat smoke weaves throughout, creating an intriguing aromatic tapestry.

Palate

Bold and beautifully balanced on the palate, the initial sweetness from dried fruits gives way to vibrant wood spices, smoked oak and roasted coffee notes. The European oak maturation lends a distinguished dryness that perfectly counterpoints the fruit character. Octomore's signature earthy smoke builds throughout, delivering a long, warming finish with lingering peat and subtle maritime influences.

Pairs With

Smoked salmon, aged Cheddar or Stilton, dark chocolate, grilled steak, oysters

Distillery Info

Octomore 14.2 uses the same barley varietal and is malted to the same PPM as the 14.1, but the liquids diverge profoundly with the influence of wine and sherry casks on the 14.2 spirit.

With over 200 different cask types in the warehouses, Head Distiller, Adam Hannett, has selected casks that have previously held Oloroso and Amarone – with the distinct sweetness and nuttiness of this combination creating an exceptional single malt.

Hailing from the renowned wine regions of Spain and Italy respectively, the spirit is then brought together in French oak, adding remarkable depth and complexity to the single malt. Octomore’s signature peak smoke notoriously pairs well with Oloroso sherry casks, with the influence of the wood adding a robust, savoury flavour to the final spirit.
The oak from the Amarone casks also has a significant impact on the spirit, imparting rich, red fruit notes - giving structure and cohesion to the 14.2. Distillery Notes
