Description
Built by the Harvey brothers in 1881, Bruichladdich is situated on the Isle of Islay. For several years Bruichladdich was known as the local's drink of choice, and to many people's surprise, it is an unpeated dram. The distillery was in production from its opening until 1995 when it closed, it was shortly resurrected in 2001 when Murray McDavid purchased the distillery a year before. Since 2000, other variants from the distillery were released, courtesy of Master Distiller Jim McEwan, the medium-peated Port Charlotte inaugural bottling came in 2006 and the heavily-peated Octomore inaugural bottling came in 2008. In 2012 French drinks group Rémy Cointreau bought Bruichladdich. Towards the decade, plans for the distillery to build its maltings were unveiled and barley trials started to test sustainable farming practices.
At 15 years of age, Polyphonic is the oldest Octomore expression released to date. A masterpiece comprised of some of the most iconic Octomore expressions of the past, further aged in cask beyond their original release, and exceptional spirit from single casks which have never been released. All brought together in perfect harmony.
First fill Grenache single cask: unreleased and peated to 167.6 PPM.
First fill Bourbon barrel: the ‘Octomore of Octomore’. The first Octomore spirit ever distilled using malting barley specifically grown at the eponymous Octomore Farm, and featured in Rock’ndaal 01.1 Fèis Ìle 2022. Peated to 173.8 PPM.
Second fill Sauternes single cask: unreleased and peated to 208 PPM.
Octomore 6.3: The original 6.3 spirit, aged in Bourbon and Syrah casks, has been further aged in second-fill Bourbon barrels. Peated to 258 PPM.
Octomore Masterclass 8.2: various wine casks and recasked into first-fill Amarone for one year before bottling. The original 8.2 spirit has been further aged in refill Bourbon barrels. Peated to 167.4 PPM.
Octomore Masterclass 8.4: virgin oak casks, peated to 170 PPM.
Octomore Event Horizon, Fèis Ìle 2019: an exclusive bottling for Fèis Ìle 2019, matured in Oloroso and PX Sherry casks. Peated to 162.6 PPM.
This Octomore was released only at the distillery for Feis Ile 2025. It is one of only 2500 bottles.
