Octomore 09.1 questions the fundamentals of superior single malt Scotch. Confident in its five year age statement, Bruichladdich's Head Distiller demonstrates how a focus on raw ingredients and considered distillation can definitively debunk the myth that older is better. Soft on the palate - no aggression, nutty, fudge, nougat, delicate coconut and rose petal floral.

Description

Bruichladdich is based on the utterly wonderful Hebridean isle of Islay and is incredibly proud of it too, promoting much of this Island and what it has to offer on their website. All their whiskies use only Scottish Barley (it’s called Scotch for a reason as they say) and are born and created to reflect the character and history of Islay. Their presentation is cracking too.

Rob Roy Cocktail Recipe

If there was ever a cocktail to make you feel the glitz and glamour of the history and chic society of New York, it's ordering a Rob Roy. The Rob Roy is a riff on a Manhattan, with their only difference being the base liquor. A Rob Roy is made using blended Scotch while a Manhattan is made with Rye. As such, the cocktail is malty and smooth, with a bit of spice on the finishing end.
