Octomore 17.3 is a five-year-old Islay single malt from Bruichladdich, bottled at 61.4% ABV. The Concerto barley was grown on Islay and harvested at Octomore Farm, then peated to 189.5 PPM. The spirit matured on Islay in first-fill bourbon barrels and second-fill European oak casks. It is uncoloured and non-chill filtered. The nose is distinctly maritime, with sea spray, tar and earthy peat smoke alongside vanilla, caramel and toasted coconut. Orchard fruit and citrus freshen the intense smoke on the palate, with sweet malt, oak and mineral notes beneath. The finish is long and dry, with persistent peat, salinity and a coastal character.

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.
