Step into the world of unparalleled intensity with Bruichladdich Octomore Edition 15.2 Super Heavily Peated Single Malt Scotch Whisky. This unique expression from Islay's iconic Octomore series pushes the boundaries of peat while embracing a sophisticated maturation process. Aged in a combination of European oak casks, this rare release takes the boldness of Octomore to new heights, offering a complex and richly layered whisky experience.
On the nose, Octomore 15.2 delivers an immediate hit of peat smoke, but it’s much more than just intensity. The smoky aroma is enveloped by fragrant notes of ripe stone fruits, dark chocolate, and spiced oak, creating a surprisingly delicate balance. Floral undertones of heather and fresh citrus zest add further intrigue to the aromatic profile.
The palate is a thrilling fusion of deep, smoky peat and rich, sweet malt. The European oak influence shines through, bringing forward flavors of dried fruits, roasted coffee beans, and caramelized sugar, all layered with waves of toasted oak and spice. Despite its super-heavy peat character, the whisky retains an elegant texture and depth that unfold beautifully with each sip.
The finish is long and warming, with smoldering peat smoke slowly giving way to subtle notes of dark cocoa, black pepper, and a hint of vanilla, leaving a lasting impression of balanced power and complexity.
Available at Folsom Wine & Spirits, Bruichladdich Octomore Edition 15.2 is a testament to the craftsmanship and innovation that defines the Octomore series. This limited-edition whisky is a collector’s dream and a must-try for those seeking the boldest yet refined peated whisky experience.
