Description

Bruichladdich Octomore Futures II, also known as 'The Beast 167ppm', is an outstanding 6-year-old single malt whisky from Islay, Scotland. Distilled in 2004 and bottled in 2011 at a robust 60.5% ABV, this limited release of 9600 bottles was matured in Bourbon casks. It features an intense peat content of 167ppm, offering a powerful yet balanced taste experience. This exclusive bottling was a distillery-only release, part of the experimental Octomore Futures series, giving early access to an extremely peated distillate. [1, 2, 3, 4, 12]
