Octomore Edition 15.3

Volume: 700ml / ABV: 61.3%

A phenomenal force of flavor and an Octomore bursting with character, the 15.3 brings together heavy-weight peating levels with variable harvests from one singular farm on Islay. Less than two miles from our distillery, the malting barley grown at Octomore Farm brings cereal forward sweetness and burnt sugar, while the casks provide notes of creamy vanilla and citrus fruits. A symphony of flavor wrapped in earthy, intense peat smoke — this is Octomore at a whole new level.

15.3 Islay Barley
Octomore 15.3 brings together heavy-weight peating (the second most peated Octomore release ever) and barley provenance from one single farm on Islay, Octomore farm.

Complex, robust and bursting with character – the smoke is countered by the malty sweetness imparted by the Islay grown barley and the hallmark sea salt tang.
