The Islay barley gives it a malty richness, while dry smoke wraps around the flavours, grounding the whisky in its peaty roots. The finish is long and inviting, with notes of burnt sugar, coconut, and a hint of sea spray, leaving a lasting impression. Octomore 15.3 captures the spirit of Islay, showcasing both power and balance.
