Tasting Notes
Octomore 13.2 5 Year Old is a smoky single malt Scotch whisky that packs a flavorful punch. On the nose, the aroma of smoked almonds mingles with notes of jammy, dried fruit courtesy of the sherry cask aging. The earthy peat smoke takes on a sweet, barbecue-like character, accompanied by hints of spicy plum pudding and zesty orange. The palate unleashes a hickory smoke essence, intertwined with flavors of almond brittle, candied citrus peels, and warm spices. The finish lingers with campfire and forest floor notes, leaving a pleasant sherry character to savor. Crafted from 100% Scottish barley malted to a robust 137.3 PPM, this Islay whisky spent five years aging exclusively in first-fill oloroso sherry butts, seamlessly blending its smoky essence with a fruity sweetness that makes for a truly unique and expressive dram.
