• Palate: Despite its high strength, Octomore 15.3 is exceptionally smooth and rounded. Enjoy the creamy vanilla and butterscotch, enhanced by dried fruit and sweet orange zest, with toasted oak and barley sugar underpinned by waves of dry smoke.
• Finish: A lingering taste of burnt sugar, coconut, and delicate sea spray, with earthy peat smoke that invites you back for more.
