Bruichladdich Octomore 15.2

Octomore 15.2 offers an exciting addition to the 15 series and clearly stands out from its counterpart 15.1 due to its unique cask maturation. Distilled from the same batch of Scottish Concerto barley and peated to 108.2 ppm, this single malt matures in an unusual combination of second-fill wine and bourbon casks. What makes it particularly special is the final maturation in fresh cognac casks, which gives the whisky additional complexity and depth. The interplay of these barrel types creates a taste profile that is both powerful and elegant.

With its maturation period of 5 years and innovative cask selection, Octomore 15.2 is a masterpiece that redefines the boundaries of the classic single malt. (automated translation)
