Tasting Notes

Imagine the salty embrace of a cool coastal breeze, carrying the scent of seaweed and the promise of adventure. That's the Octomore 9 Year Old 2011 (Release No.11941) - The Stories of Wind & Wave. This Islay whisky invites you to bask in its smoky allure, unveiling notes of milky coffee and vanilla that dance alongside the briny air. As you sip, a burst of fresh fruit – green apples, white grapes, and more – delightfully mingles with the smoky peat, creating a harmonious symphony on your palate. The finish lingers with a nutty warmth, yet the peat remains steadfast, leaving you longing for another sip of this exceptional dram. Bottled at 50% ABV, this 9-year-old single malt from Bruichladdich's Octomore range is a true testament to the brilliant character of Islay whiskies.
