The Octomore Edition 13.1 is a whisky bottle with a backbone of 100% Scottish barley, distilled and peated to an impressive 137.3 PPM. This single malt has been patiently distilled from the 2015 harvest of Scottish Mainland barley, matured for five years in the highest quality American oak casks, and bottled at 59.2% ABV. As the foundational expression of the 13th Octomore series, it offers a point of comparison for the other expressions, balancing the strength of the Octomore spirit with a graceful, understated maturation in ex-American oak. This whisky offers a complex aroma of sweet barley, nuttiness, smoke, and ripe fruits, complemented by creme brulee. The palate shines with smoked apricot jam, burnt heather, gooseberry, and Turkish delight. The finish lingers, leaving a lasting impression of saltiness, floral notes, and a mossy smoke. Octomore 13.1 is known for its exceptional peatiness, making it one of the whiskies with the highest peat levels in the world. This young and dynamic single malt was distilled in 2016 using 100% Scottish barley, malted to an astounding 137.3 PPM, and matured in first-fill American oak ex-bourbon casks for five years. The result is a whisky with rich layers of vanilla and deep, smoky peat. Since its launch in 2008, the Octomore single malt has defied conventional whisky wisdom. Its surprising elegance and balance, given its high peat levels and near-cask strength bottling, have led to it being referred to as "The Impossible Equation." This whisky is a testament to the trust in the quality of its ingredients and the courage of the concept of Octomore. This whisky is non-chill filtered and naturally colored, allowing the true character of the spirit to shine through. The Octomore Edition 13.1 is a remarkable example of the exploration of the Scottish terroir, offering a unique and unforgettable tasting experience for whisky enthusiasts.
