Octomore is famous for being the smokiest whisky in the world. But focusing on that reputation would sell Octomore short. This brand is made at Bruichladdich, an artisanal distillery on the Isle of Islay. While the Octomore 10.1 is very smoky indeed, there are many more flavors and aromas to discover. This is because of Bruichladdich’s hands-on distillation process and the use of first-fill bourbon casks from a variety of sources like Jim Beam, Heaven Hill, Buffalo Trace and Jack Daniel’s.
