About this bottle

Octomore 15.1 is the flagship entry in Bruichladdich's 2024 Octomore release, the annual series built around the heaviest peating levels in Scotch whisky. Distilled and matured at the Bruichladdich distillery on Islay, this edition is aged five years and bottled at a robust 57.3% ABV, delivering the series' signature paradox: aggressive smoke balanced by real sweetness rather than pure ash. Expect bold peat and coastal salinity up front, with vanilla, caramel, and dried fruit filling in beneath the smoke — a heavier pour than standard Islay malts like Laphroaig or Ardbeg, built for peat enthusiasts who want the category pushed to its edge.

How to drink Octomore 15.1

Pour it neat in a small measure; at nearly 115 proof, a few drops of water will open the vanilla and fruit hiding under the smoke without washing it out.
