EXPLORE OR NEVER KNOW
Octomore single malts have defied received whisky wisdom since they were first distilled in 2002.
Sometimes bottled bold and brash at 5 years of age, always super heavily peated and barrel-strength, each release is a fluid embodiment of ”The Impossible Equation”.
We challenge preconceived notions about what constitutes quality whisky.
In each new set of four, we consider the elements that contribute to the depth and balance of each youthful drop.
Is it the source of the raw materials?
Is it a careful selection of the quality and style of the wood?
Or is it in the influence of nature; weather, climate, soil?
Polarized opinions… exposure to criticism… we accept the inevitable in hopes of unlocking new realms of flavor.
Those who join us in adopting this mindset, the silent trust, will receive organoleptic rewards for the risks taken.
