for an Octomore that are known for their smokiness, I find this very soft. The smoke is barely noticeable. Rather fruity and sweet instead of smoky.

Overall I rate this Whisky 85/100 points

  • Nose: 85/100 points
    light smoke, fruity and sweet, citrus fruits and slightly nutty, alcohol slightly pungent

  • Taste: 85/100 points
    Smoky, spicy, sweet, fruity, pepper, a little vanilla, rather soft and the smoke disappears quickly, slightly malty

  • Finish: 85/100 points
    spicy, sweet finish, alcohol burns a bit on the palate, sweetness increases and some fruit comes through. Becoming bitter
