Say hello to Octomore 16.1 — the launchpad of the 16 series. It’s built from 100% mainland Scottish Concerto barley, peated like crazy (101.4 ppm), then aged five years in fresh first‑fill bourbon barrels. At 59.3% ABV it’s bold but never sloppy: peat smoke meets salted caramel, honeyed melon, apricot and that charred edge. Add some chocolate, coconut and gentle minerality, and you’ve got whisky with attitude. Sip it slowly, or splash a drop of water and let the smoke dance. (Yes, you’ll want the full dram.)

Smoke with swagger. Octomore 16.1 brings bonfire intensity, bourbon freshness, and fruity punch in one explosive, peated whisky. Not for the faint of flavour.

Tasting notes
Nose: Sea spray, orchard fruit, gentle bonfire smoke. Touches of vanilla bean, roasted almonds, wild herbs, and smoked paprika. Palate: Candied sweetness, green apples, melon, apricot, then full peat and charred bonfire richness. Think burnt toffee and tobacco hug. Finish: Long. Tobacco and bitter herbs, orange zest, lasting smoke and drying oak.
