Description

This ongoing series from Bruichladdich is the most heavily peated whisky in the world. Named after James Brown's farm that is situated above Port Charlotte, this Brobdingnagian whisky deftly lives up to its description as, "The iron fist in the velvet glove". It is the backbone of the 14th annual Octomore series, showcasing the delicate balance between smoke, malt, cask and maturation. Matured for five years in first-fill ex-American whiskey casks and bottled at 59.6% ABV.

Nose
Smoked vanilla, sweet caramel, and toffee notes open on the nose, with sooty smoke balanced with delicate coconut and flaked almonds. There is an unmistakable earthy smokiness and a hint of citrus, with lemon meringue pie cutting through rich barbeque pork.
Palate
Bright citrus, smoke and a distinct minerality come through on the palate, followed by charred oak and beach bonfire embers. Toffee and creamy vanilla are balanced with the earthy smoke, with bright notes of pear, gooseberry fool and green apple simultaneously adding brightness and depth. Roasted coffee, hints of clove and nutmeg begin to come to the fore, with a gentle hint of heather honey.
Finish
Butterscotch and vanilla are balanced with Octomore's signature earthy peat smoke and a hint of salt spray, with burnt heather and gorse flowers settling on the finish.
