Octomore and its single malts, among the peatiest in the world, captivate connoisseurs with their balance and elegance. Introducing the Octomore 15 series.

Octomore 15.1

The Octomore 15.1, the cornerstone of this new series, serves as the benchmark for the other two expressions. Distilled in 2018 from 100% Scottish Concerto barley, this single malt boasts a peat level of 108.2 PPM. Matured in a combination of first-fill ex-bourbon casks and retoasted ex-bourbon casks, it offers a complex and balanced aromatic profile.
