At 307.2 PPM, Octomore 15.3 is our second most heavily peated release to date. Using 100% Islay barley, matured in bourbon casks and Spanish Oloroso hogsheads. Formidable smoke is countered by ripe fruit from its patient distillation.

15.3 Islay Barley

Octomore 15.3 brings together heavyweight peating levels and variable harvests from one singular farm on Islay - Octomore farm, located just 2 miles from the distillery.

At 307.2 PPM, 15.3 is complex, robust and bursting with character. Formidable smoke is countered by ripe fruit from its patient distillation, showcasing both incomparable flavour and provenance. Kissed by salty sea spray, the homegrown Islay barley imparts not only malty sweetness but evokes a true sense of place.

〝A phenomenal force of flavour and an Octomore bursting with character, the 15.3 brings together heavyweight peating levels with variable harvests from one singular farm on Islay.

Less than two miles from our distillery, the 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 flavour wrapped in earthy, intense peat smoke - this is Octomore at a whole new level.〞

TASTING NOTES

Colour: Golden Syrup

Nose: Smoked cinder toffee, rich malted Islay barley sugar and honey come to the fore, balanced with fresh citrus. Dried fruit and crushed seashells mingle with Octomore’s heady peat smoke, with cloves, toasted nuts and a hint of coconut adding depth and complexity. Butterscotch, brown sugar and warm bread pave the way for the cereal-forward single malt whisky.

Palate: High strength yet exceptionally soft in texture, Octomore 15.3 is unmistakably rounded and viscous. Butterscotch and creamy vanilla enhance its smooth character, punctuated with dried fruit and sweet orange zest. Toasted oak and locally grown barley sugar are underpinned with waves of dry smoke.

Finish: Burnt sugar, coconut, and delicate sea spray linger on the finish, with the lasting impression of earthy peat smoke forcing you to come back for more.
