Description
At 15 Aged Years, 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.
NOSE
The influence of the oak is immediate, with the quality French and American oak casks evoking sweet cinder toffee, vanilla fudge, dark chocolate and a pinch of sea salt. Burnt orange mingles with waves of barbeque smoke, with subtle hints of liquorice and ripe cherry. True to the distillery’s signature floral style, delicate honeysuckle adds a touch of elegance.
PALATE
Beautifully rounded and smooth, notes of freshly baked pastry, golden syrup and freshly ground coffee come to the fore. A subtle minerality is a gentle reminder of the spirit’s all-Islay maturation, with notes of sea salt, warm sand and beach bonfire smoke evoking a true sense of place. Mellow toasted oak adds layers of depth and complexity.
FINISH
Soft seasoned oak settles as elegant peat smoke and waves of sea spray linger.
