Bruichladdich Octomore 16.2 58.1% 700ml takes the Octomore DNA and layers in a more complex cask regime. Where 16.1 shows the spirit in ex-bourbon, 16.2 steps into a mix of barrel types (including wine or fortified influence in the series concept) to add darker fruit, spice and texture around that famously intense peat smoke.

You still get the Octomore hallmarks – coastal salinity, kiln smoke, grilled citrus and sweet malt – but 16.2 pushes the profile toward dried fruit, toasted oak and a slightly richer, more dessert-driven finish. It’s the expression for drinkers who enjoy Octomore’s power but want more layering and conversation in the glass, rather than just a peat sledgehammer.

Casa de Vinos receives limited allocations of each Octomore release. Bottles of 16.2 are available for collectors and enthusiasts, and we’ll also pour it by the nip at casadevinoslounge.com.au while stock allows. Venues interested in featuring 16.2 on serious whisky lists or as part of a Bruichladdich flight can reach out via sales@casadevinos.com.au for trade pricing and support. It sits naturally alongside Port Charlotte and classic Bruichladdich in curated tasting line-ups.
