OCTOMORE - 12.2 - 57.3%<\/strong><\/span><\/p>
The Bruichladdich Distillery<\/strong>, iconic and authentic, is located in the heart of the Islay<\/strong> island, in Scotland<\/strong>, a region renowned for its exceptional whiskies. Bruichladdich excels in producing Single Malt whiskies under three prestigious brands: Bruichladdich, Port Charlotte<\/strong>, and Octomore<\/strong>. In addition to its whiskies, this renowned distillery also produces the famous gin The Botanist<\/strong>. Founded in 1881 by the Harvey brothers, the distillery has a rich history, notably marked by a fire in 1934 and various phases of ownership changes. After closing in 1994, it was revived in 2000 thanks to acquisition by a group of investors led by Mark Reynier<\/strong> from Murray McDavid, also known for its Waterford whiskies in Ireland. Fully restored, it still retains its Victorian-era equipment, operates using a gravity system, and favors a manual production process without computerized control. In 2012, Bruichladdich joined the luxury group Rémy Cointreau<\/strong>, further enhancing its international presence. The distillery pays exceptional attention to the quality and traceability of its Scottish barley, a fundamental element of its identity.<\/p>
The Bruichladdich range is largely non-peated<\/strong>, while its whiskies with strongly peated notes are expressed under the Port Charlotte<\/strong> brand. The Octomore<\/strong> series stands out with its limited editions featuring record levels of peat, making it the benchmark for peated Single Malts, celebrated by enthusiasts and collectors worldwide.<\/p>
Octomore 12.2<\/strong> is an exclusive edition, distilled in 2015<\/strong> from Scottish Concerto barley harvested in 2014. This exceptional whisky has been aged for 5 years<\/strong>, combining equal parts maturation in first and second fill American oak casks<\/strong>, blended in 2019, before a remarkable finish in first fill Sauternes wine casks<\/strong>. This process imparts a unique aromatic complexity and smoothness to this single malt.<\/p>
