The Octomore Futures I Ochdamh-mor is a rare 5-year-old single malt whisky distilled at Bruichladdich on the 16th of October 2002 and bottled in April 2008. As a limited edition, this bottling consists of only 9600 bottles of 700ml each. It represents a special pre-release of the now-renowned Octomore range, once celebrated as the most heavily peated whisky in the world with an impressive peat level of 80.5 PPM. Bottled at 46% ABV, this whisky was matured exclusively in Buffalo Trace Bourbon casks, giving it unique flavor profile characteristics. Distilled under the expert guidance of Master Distiller Jim McEwan, who personally signed some of the bottles, this whisky embodies the innovative spirit of Bruichladdich. Founded in 1881, the Bruichladdich distillery experienced a renaissance in 2000 when it was revitalized under a consortium led by Murray McDavid’s Mark Reynier. This Octomore release reflects the distillery’s commitment to producing distinctive and memorable whiskies. With its smoky and fruity aroma combining notes of pear, green apple, vanilla, and malt, and a complex flavor profile of vanilla sweetness, smoke, malt, lime, pepper, and orange juice, the Octomore Futures I Ochdamh-mor delivers a long, smoky, spicy, and malty finish. It's a masterpiece of creative craftsmanship that serves as a monumental marker in the history of heavily peated whiskies.
