Octomore 11.3 is a five year old single malt from Bruichladdich on Islay, distilled in 2014 from the 2013 harvest of Concerto barley grown on Octomore farm. The barley was malted to 194 PPM. It matured for its full term on Islay in first fill American whiskey casks from Jim Beam, Heaven Hill, Buffalo Trace and Jack Daniels. Bottled at 61.7% without chill-filtering or added colour, it is limited to 18,000 bottles. The nose is floral and bright, with light peat smoke, sweet citrus, honey and vanilla.

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.
