Octomore 17.1 is the first release in the 17 series from Bruichladdich on Islay, a five year old single malt matured fully in first fill bourbon barrels. It is bottled at 59.7% in a 70cl bottle. It is made from 100% Mainland Concerto barley and peated to 81.0ppm, giving smoke and char. The nose pairs vanilla milkshake, Scottish tablet and warm custard with pear drops and malt syrup. On the palate the peat builds in waves, with dry earthy smoke, smouldering oak and ash. On the finish, salinity cuts through the sweetness.

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.
