The Octomore 9.3 was produced from barley grown on "Irene's field on Octomore farm", peated to 133 parts per million and was matured predominantly in refill ex-Bourbon casks. Bottled at 62.9%.
Just 52 tonnes of precious Islay barley were malted to produce this single farm Octomore 09.3 edition. Raised in Irene’s Field on Octomore Farm in 2011, this uber-provenance single malt was later distilled and filled into 134 casks. Predominantly second-fill, the gentler influence of the wood allows more of the locally grown barley flavours to cut through the legendary peat smoke.
