Octomore 2004 Futures The Beast

From the famed Bruichladdich Distillery on Islay, Octomore 2004 – “The Beast” – stands as a testament to intensely peated Scotch whisky, boasting a remarkable 167ppm of peat. Distilled in November 2004 and bottled in April 2011, this expression draws its character from ex-bourbon casks, yielding a complex spirit. Expect a powerful, smoky experience balanced by a surprising smoothness – an “iron fist in a velvet glove” as it’s known. Originating from barley grown on James Brown’s farm above Port Charlotte, Octomore delivers a uniquely Islay flavour profile at 60.5% ABV.
