Description

Octomore 16.4 showcases the dynamic tension and ultimate harmony achieved between French virgin oak and heavily peated Islay barley, expertly distilled. This 5-year-old single malt is made from 100% Islay grown Concerto barley, distilled in 2019, and matured in a combination of second-fill bourbon barrels and French virgin oak casks. It is bottled with no added colour and non-chill filtered, pushing the limits of intensity without ever sacrificing balance or elegance.

Nose
Intense smoke gives way to the rich, caramelised sweetness of toasted virgin French oak. Cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove intertwine with baked apples and pears drizzled with honey. Peat remains a constant and powerful presence, winding its way through the oak and spice.
Palate
Toasted oak, roasted coffee beans, dark chocolate, and a hint of sweet smoke. Stewed apples and pears balance the oak's richness. The barley evokes a subtle, earthy undercurrent, the scent of rain-soaked earth, whilst smoke underscores the other flavours without overwhelming them.
Finish
Exceptionally long finish with sweet, toasted wood, baking spices, and a whisper of smoke. A final hint of fruit and a touch of sea-salt settle on the palate.
