Octomore: Bruichladdich's Extreme Peated Whisky Experiment

🎙️ Whisky.dk ai Podcast – Octomore: Bruichladdich's Extreme Peated Whisky Experiment

Are you ready to challenge your palate and your understanding of whisky? In this episode of the Whisky.dk Podcast, we dive into one of the most uncompromising and fascinating series in modern Scotch whisky: Octomore from Bruichladdich Distillery on Islay.

Octomore isn’t just about peat – it’s about extreme peat. With PPM levels that make even Ardbeg and Laphroaig seem mild, Bruichladdich has created a series that balances wild intensity with unexpected elegance. How can a whisky with over 100 PPM still be complex, fruity, and refined? That’s exactly the mystery we explore.

We’ll talk terroir, cask selection, barley types, and distillation techniques – and how Octomore .1, .2, .3, and .4 each tell their own story. You’ll get insight into Bruichladdich’s commitment to transparency, sustainability, and innovation, and why Octomore has become a collector’s icon among whisky lovers around the world.

So pour yourself a dram – maybe an Octomore 16.1 – and join us as we get up close with “The Impossible Equation.” This isn’t just whisky. It’s an experience.
