Octomore 4 5 YO 0,7l

Another benchmark – this time 167 ppm. but don’t think this dram is all about cojones (ok, well that too) – as jim murray says in his whisky bible: “forget about the age. Don’t be frightened by the phenol levels. great whisky is not about numbers; it’s about excellent distillation and careful maturation.”

Or as allthingswhisky.com put it: “like watching a beautiful woman undress, this whisky just gets better and better the more it reveals itself… this slow sensual build becomes almost overwhelming by the time you take your first sip.”

Rock ‘n’ roll.

It is not just a case of tasting peat, peat and more peat. This is a strong, flavoursome, handsome, proud young son of the stills, with a warm, open, Gaelic heart – unconstrained by phenolic overload, untainted by additives, not stripped of his pride by chill-filtration – but made by real people with passion and rare skills. Discerning followers of this islands’ malt whiskies deserve nothing less.

Your anticipation is about to be rewarded: a heat-haze of peat smoke, bog myrtle, heather, wild thyme and juniper harmonise to lift the senses into a state of ecstasy. Next, a beautiful floral bouquet of yellow, riverside, summer flowers (primrose, buttercup, flag iris and wild lilies) waft by – the wind changes – and now the aromas are barley fields just before harvest, with sweet vanilla notes of Bourbon-soaked oak. As time passes, lemon zest and clover honey, slipstream on a cooling, marine breeze. It’s a hedonistic aroma explosion blowing your mind.

The finish is a very long and winding road of mellowness, ending on a beautiful sunset of smoke and fruit syrup. It’s 100% Islay DNA, the latest addition to the most heavily peated whisky in the world.
