Octomore 17.3 is a 5 year old Islay single malt from Bruichladdich, part of the Seventeen Series. The barley comes from a single field on Octomore Farm. It was matured in first-fill bourbon barrels and second-fill casks that held Ribera del Duero, Sauternes, ice wine and Syrah, and it is bottled at 60.9% without colouring or chill-filtration. The nose brings salted caramel, smoked apple and toasted coconut, with praline and vanilla cream. On the palate, dry ashy smoke and strong peat meet sweet malt, vanilla and caramel, with citrus oils and a clear saltiness. The finish is long and dry, and stays smoky and coastal.

About Glenbotal

The idea of Glenbotal came to us naturally: as whisky lovers, we were always on the lookout for new experiences in the whisky world. That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from ballots and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
