An Islay 16 Years Old 2009 The Octave Duncan Taylor Cask Nr.11850417

Description

An Islay 16 Years Old 2009 The Octave Duncan Taylor Cask Nr.11850417 is a single cask, single malt Scotch whisky from a traditional Islay distillery, bottled at 52.9% ABV after maturing in an Octave cask from the independent bottler Duncan Taylor. The nose offers intense smoke, ripe plums, and dried orange peel, while the palate reveals full bodied texture with dark chocolate and structured oak, leading to a long finish of roasted nuts and noble dry wood warmth. Distilled in December 2009 and bottled in 2026, this whisky is limited to a strict world release of just 87 bottles. Unchillfiltered and natural in color, this is a powerfully smoky, sherry influenced dram from a single cask.
