Bruichladdich Octomore 11 Year Old 2013 Single Cask

TWB Tasting Notes: Nose: Bold waves of peat smoke are immediately apparent, followed by subtle layers of vanilla bean, lemon zest, and a soft maritime brine. A gentle note of charred oak lingers in the background. Palate: Intense, smoky richness takes center stage, supported by sweet bourbon cask influences of caramel, creamy toffee, and hints of coconut. The high PPM level is balanced by nuanced fruit notes—think green apple and citrus—adding brightness to the otherwise robust profile. Finish: Long, warming, and satisfyingly peaty. The lingering smoke is joined by a measured sweetness of vanilla and oak-derived spice, creating a multi-layered, memorable finale.
