Discover Bruichladdich Octomore 14.3:
Bruichladdich Octomore 14.3 is a testament to the art of whisky making, a single malt Scotch that pushes the boundaries of peat and complexity. Distilled on the Isle of Islay, this expression is renowned for its exceptionally high phenol content, measured at an astounding 194 ppm (parts per million), which imbues it with an intense smoky character that is not for the faint-hearted.
The .3 designation in Octomore’s nomenclature indicates that this whisky is crafted from barley grown exclusively on Islay, providing a terroir-driven nuance to its profile. The local Concerto barley used in this edition was harvested from Octomore Farm in 2012 and distilled a year later, ensuring a deep connection to its geographical roots.
Nestled on the windswept shores of Islay, an island off the west coast of Scotland, Bruichladdich Distillery stands as a beacon of traditional and innovative whisky making. This distillery is renowned for its commitment to crafting unpeated Scotch whiskies that are rich in character and complexity. Unlike many other distilleries on Islay, known for their heavily peated malts, Bruichladdich takes a different path by focusing on the natural flavors imparted by the local terroir.
Bruichladdich is also celebrated for its series of heavily peated whiskies under the name Octomore, which have gained acclaim for being some of the most intensely peated whiskies in the world. These expressions push boundaries and challenge perceptions about what Scotch whisky can be.

Scotch whiskey, a distinguished spirit originating from Scotland, is primarily made from malted barley for single malts and grains for blended varieties. This iconic drink undergoes a meticulous distillation process using pot stills for single malts and column stills for grain whiskies, followed by an aging period of at least three years in oak casks, often previously used for bourbon or sherry. The result is a diverse range of flavors and aromas that reflect the unique characteristics of its regions of origin.
Single malt Scotch typically boasts rich and complex flavors with notes of fruit, spice, smoke, peat, and oak, while blended Scotch offers a smoother profile with balanced hints of caramel, vanilla, and light smoke. The texture can vary significantly—from smooth and creamy to rich and oily—depending on the style. Scotch whiskey is versatile in its consumption; it can be enjoyed neat or on the rocks and serves as a key ingredient in classic cocktails like the Rob Roy or Blood & Sand.
