Description

The Rest and Be Thankful Whisky Co. is named after the famous stone inscription that sits at the apex of the old military road built in 1753 running from Arrocher, over Glen Croe. In the spirit of the message and taking a breather, the company independently bottle fantastic whiskies so that we can all have a wee relaxing yet satisfactory dram. This is a 2008 vintage Octomore, a super-heavily peated single malt produced at Bruichladdich, distilled on 19 March 2008, and aged for seven years in a French Oak cask before being bottled on 6 May 2015.
