OLD PARTICULAR OCTOMORE 2012 (10 Year Old)
Old Particular OCTOMORE 10 Years Single Cask Single Malt by Douglas Laing
Distilled November 2012 & Bottled March 2023
308 bottles at 48.4% ABV produced from a Bourbon barrel.
Ref: DL 17228. Not chill filtered, Not colored.
One of only a few Octomore IBs. OBs are usually bottled at 5 Years to keep the richness of the phenols compact and tight. As phenols soften with age, this 10 year old Octomore is a more refined and subtle version that even those relatively new to peated whiskies may find approachable.
Fun Fact on Octomore – One of three single malt labels of the Bruichladdich Distillery on the island of Islay. Single malts under the Bruichladdich label are un-peated, whilst Port Charlotte is peated and Octomore currently reigns as the most peated whisky in the world.
