Octomore 2009 Futures 5 Year Old
Octomore is the super-heavily peated single malt produced by Bruichladdich distillery, the most routinely heavily peated in the world. The whisky is named after the farm of the same name, located on a hillside north of the town of Port Charlotte. Having been traditionally an un-peated single malt due to the needs of its former owners for their blends, Murray McDavid were quick to diversify the Bruichladdich portfolio, also introducing the more lightly peated Port Charlotte and Lochindaal.
This was the 2014 Futures release, distilled on the 23rd February 2009. A 5 year old, it was matured exclusively in Buffalo Trace casks, peated to 258ppm.
