The Octave Bunnahabhain Peated 2014 6 Year Old
$79.00 Availability: In StockExclusively bottled for The Whisky Shop, this Bunnahabhain 2014 peated single malt is an exemplary dram from the Islay distillery. Aged for six years in oak casks, what makes this a standout expression is a three month flourish in an octave cask. Only 50 bottles have been yielded from this process, and all come at a punchy cask strength of 53.6% abv. The finish in an octave is important, as this type of cask contains about 1/8th of a butt, meaning there is a lot more interaction between the whisky and the oak cask. It is free from chill filtration and any artificial colouring.
Peat smoke combines with rich fruit notes on the nose, and the palate gives subtle hints of brown sugar, toasted almonds, liquorice, and rich fruit. The finish is sweet and peaty, with notes of highland toffee and tablet arriving in a luxurious texture. A fascinating dram.

The Octave Glen Elgin 2010 10 Year Old
$130.00 Availability: In StockAn exclusive to The Whisky Shop, this single malt is a knockout from the Glen Elgin Distillery. Aged for 11 years in oak casks, this had its maturation process end with a flourish. It spent 3 months in an octave cask, a much smaller cask that allows for a much faster maturation, making a punchy, more intense dram. This was bottled in 2021 by Duncan Taylor for The Whisky Shop, and lies at a hearty cask strength 55.1% abv. The yield from this single cask expression was only 92 bottles, so we are expecting that these will be all gone pretty quickly.
You can expect the Glen Elgin character on the nose and palate, with whiffs of smoke and a characteristic Speyside fruitiness. Notes of almonds and marzipans arrive on a smooth finish, which accompanies notes of charred oak and vanilla. A splendid dram from a modest distillery.
