Суммаризация отзывов

Octomore 16.1 — торфяной, но дым часто описывают как сдержанный и хорошо интегрированный, с заметной солёностью, фруктовыми и ванильными оттенками. Мнения о глубине и балансе расходятся: часть отзывов хвалит гармоничность, другие считают его менее выразительным.

развернуть подробно

В отзывах нос чаще всего описывают как торфяной, но не обязательно резко дымный: встречаются формулировки про сдержанный, хорошо интегрированный или «мягкий» дым, а также про землистый, минеральный и солёный характер. Часто упоминаются фруктовые ноты — яблоко, груша, цитрусы, абрикос, тропические фрукты, — вместе с ванилью, карамелью, солёной карамелью, мёдом, миндалём и цветочными оттенками. Отдельные отзывы отмечают необычные ноты: лакрица, зелёный чай/матча, жасмин, «влажная собака», дрожжи, солод, йод, смола, шоколад и кофе. Во вкусе преобладают торф, солёность/морской характер, минеральность, специи и перец; встречаются яблоко, цитрус, манго, ананас, шоколад, кофе, орехи, карамель и тоффи. Финиш в большинстве описаний длинный или средне-длинный, дымный, солёный, иногда с шоколадом, мятой, кофе, марципаном и пряной теплотой. При этом несколько отзывов называют виски менее впечатляющим, незрелым или с недостатком утончённости и глубины, тогда как другие хвалят гармоничность, насыщенность и «взрыв ярких вкусов»; часть отмечает, что он уступает другим версиям Octomore.

The nose is very creamy, but not like pastry cream, with a layer of peat and a medicinal touch, dried heather, almonds, cut hay, intense mineral notes, vanilla and lemon, but in the background, semi-salted butter, barley sugar, apricot jam, and floral fragrances. On the palate, toasted hazelnuts, coconut, salted and creamy caramel, green apple, seaweed, and ginger. Peat and spices abound. The finish is very long and well-made, with a generous pinch of salt, marzipan, a fireplace, dark chocolate and mint, honey, and ether. Intense pepper and lots of smoke linger on the palate. The 13.1 and the 15.1 were very elegant, and this one is more rustic, more country-style, but with a certain elegance nonetheless. https://ilikesky2020.blogspot.com/2025/12/octomore-2019-edition-161-impossible.html

German Youtube Review: https://youtu.be/h5uUq39Ng1Q

нос · вкус · финиш

Нос	89	The Octomore experience begins with a surprisingly floral and elegant nose, revealing unusual notes of licorice, green tea (matcha), and jasmine. This delicate sweetness is accompanied by a rustic undertone reminiscent of lightly smoked pork rind.
Вкус	86	On the palate, the whisky is purist and straightforward. It has a very sweet taste, dominated by aromas of flambéed and roasted grain. Despite its high 59% ABV, the alcohol is described as superbly integrated and honest.
Финиш	85	The finale is peaty and very long-lasting. It's a classic, powerful finish that delivers exactly what the purist approach promises.

Koning Connoisseur 86 25 mar 2026 12:31 pm

I enjoyed this one in a Bruichladdich masterclass, but it didn't blew me away like some other Octomores in the past. The palate and finish are more exciting than the nose, altough they still lacks a bit of refinement and depth in taste and development. No magic in this Octomore edition for me!

нос · вкус · финиш

Нос	84	Peated of course, yet surprisingly restrained for the ppm's mentioned. Beyond the peat it's a bit floral, there's some vanilla and a nice whiff of ozone. I've also an association of wet dog and detergent, not too sure about that…
Вкус	87	Full on peat now, yet not medicinal in style since Bruichladdich sources its peat from the Highlands and not from Islay (like several others from that island). A clear salty / maritime element unfolds together with apples and citrus fruits. The mouth feel is thick and oily, an intense experience as expected!
Финиш	87	Heavy peat, citrus oils and a herbal freshness.

holborndrinker Connoisseur 86 09 apr 2026 10:55 pm

Although the peat levels are high, it's not a typical Islay peat - more like a chocolate brownie with a few fresh chillis thrown in. Well worth trying, although a full bottle might be a bit much.

нос · вкус · финиш

Нос	86	Chocolate brownies dropped in a muddy field, some blackcurrant, with the peat coming through more as an earthy note than a smoky one.
Вкус	86	The mouthfeel is good as there is a pleasant thickness to it - the taste opens with the chocolate notes, there is a little smoke before the alcohol comes in providing a big hit of heat (chilli) although it is surprisingly gentle for the abv. A slight bitter note at the death.
Финиш	85	The finish is medium to long with a bitter, chocolate note and a hint of the chilli still going on. Made me smile.

MaroFF Connoisseur 88 20 sep 2025 4:57 pm

I expected a mediocre whisky for a lot of money, which doesn't match the quality, but instead I received a very decent whisky, traditionally with plenty of smoke, sweet yellow fruit in the form of apples, apricots, and juicy peaches. The finish is very pleasant, with a campfire and a hint of chocolate and fresh mint. If I find it at a good price somewhere, I'll gladly buy it.

нос · вкус · финиш

Нос	88	delicate, tar splinter, meadow flowers, sweet, vanilla, fudge cream, yellow apples, grated lemon peel, young walnuts
Вкус	89	sweet, multi-flower honey, young oak bark, strongly smoky with charcoal, smoke from the smokehouse, honeydew apples, apricot, ripe peach
Финиш	88	long, pleasant, with peat, campfire smoke, slightly earthy, slightly spicy, warming finish, tingling on the tongue with a chocolate and mint aftertaste

MichaelS. Expert Senior 85 27 sep 2025 10:39 pm

Tasted from a Glencairn glass. Tasted without added water! This Octomore has a subtle smoky note, which I'm not used to. I also keep detecting a salty note, which I find very pleasant. Despite all that, this is a somewhat weak Octomore for me.

нос · вкус · финиш

Нос	85	On the nose, I get light grassy smoky notes, followed by bright fruity notes. A hint of nougat and honey. The alcohol is well integrated.
Вкус	85	On the palate, I have a subtle smoky note, followed by unripe banana, pear, and a touch of toffee. Honey and salted caramel. The alcohol is well integrated.
Финиш	84	The finish is medium-long, with a nice smoky note at the end with a hint of salted caramel and honey.

Good one with 86/87p though I prefered the .2 for some extra complexity from the sherry / wine casks (88p), with the .3 benefiting from the local barley (89p)

A fruity, fresh Bourbon Octomore, very "clean", again one of the better batches.

нос · вкус · финиш

Нос	88	Pale yellow, fruity, with a hint of pineapple, sugary biscuit, and salty but very clean and rather restrained smoke. Very appealing!
Вкус	86	Very sweet at the beginning, then minerally salty, later spicy and very smoky, slightly bitter.
Финиш	85	Medium length, the smoke becomes more pronounced here. Salt sticks, with only minimal fruit.

kingoaa Expert Junior 84 24 nov 2025 3:20 am

Nose is somewhat faint, but I did pick up smoldering embers, butter toffee, sea salt and dried apricots. Lots of peat on the palate, salty with touch of sweetness. Peppery finish that became very drying. I’m a little underwhelmed by this Octomore expression.

Light, straw color. Oily structure.

Нос	86	Peat. Earthiness. Seaweed. Vanilla. A hint of citrus. A hint of white fruit and tropical fruit. Coconut. Caramel. Salted caramel. Spices. Black pepper. Barley malt. Gains slightly with time. More peat develops. The second nose is better. Smoother, more sweetness, more vanilla.
Вкус	87	Peat. Earthiness. Seaweed. Sea salt. Minerality. Salty toffee. Salty fudge. Spices. Black pepper. Slight oiliness. Lots of peat.
Финиш	88	Earthiness. Peat. Sea salt. Nuts. Salty toffee. Butter with salt and a hint of smoke. Smoked bacon. BBQ sauce arrives after the second sip. Fatty. Long finish.

Нос	85	The smoke is relatively tame, the nose is relatively pale. I get bright, yellow notes, a bit of salted caramel, and that's it for me.
Вкус	86	Robust, mineral, and smoky. The unspecific yellow fruits evolve into mango, dried pineapple, and light oak spice.
Финиш	87	Very long, smoky, slightly sweet. Eternal aftertaste.

Lovely fruity notes on the nose followed by a hit of peat , caramel nuts, cinnamon sugar, vanilla extract and peaty smoke.

Tasted this at the WTF 2025 in Utrecht, where chats were abundant and notes were scarce. But here’s my take on this whisky. Although I do like an Octomore, this one was the least pleasant one I have tasted so far. It’s somewhat immature, which shows by the out of balance alcohol. Let’s hope it was just my palet that was off. I’ll definitely give this another go if I get the chance, but wouldn’t buy it at the moment.

Вкус	88	Salty and savory, with a harmonious peat flavor.
Финиш	87	The aftertaste is long, and the empty glass still has vanilla notes.

mr_wormtub Member Junior 87 07 jul 2026 6:33 am

Color: pale gold. Nose: ski wax, roasted barley, peat, oilcloth, tar, pomelos, iodine, wool, burnt tires, green tea, smoke, green apples, lemons, pears, charcoal, dried calamari, honey glazed ham, fried bananas. Smells really good! Taste: smoky and oily, peat, chocolate, coffee beans, baked apples, pears, soot, spice, salt, cacao, clove, oak. Alcohol is well integrated. Finish: apples, salt, pears, peat, lemons, honey, spice, chocolate, coffee beans, smoke. Somewhat hot. Conclusion: no fancy maturation here, just good old first-fill bourbon barrels. I have a feeling, though, that the barley was extra roasted, giving the malt some really unnecessary sweetness that clashes with the pleasant tartness and affects the balance. Nothing to complain about with the peat. The levels are far from record-breaking, yet quite satisfying. I'd say the score is still high, around 87/100, but this malt is not on par with Octomore 16.3.

Tried without adding water. [88~91] complex, interesting, fun, I can spend more time with it, "I want to have it" :-D

нос · вкус · финиш

Нос	88	Blossom honey, sponge cake, butter biscuit, marzipan, almonds, cherry stones, elderflower, gooseberry, star fruit, light citrus notes, vanilla. Restrained, warm peat smoke.
Вкус	88	Sweet, fruity-floral, almond-nutty, warm peat smoke flashes up briefly, but then remains pleasantly in the background.
Финиш	87	This is where the 59% ABV first becomes apparent. The palate begins to tingle. Chili and cinnamon heat, framed by sweet marzipan, floral impressions, and tropical fruits. I notice the peat smoke more strongly now, although I don't find it dominant here either. However, it is now saltier with iodine and lingers longest in the medium to long finish. Later, slight sulfur notes appear, which are not unpleasant for me (I am very sensitive to sulfur).

A delicate aroma of tropical fruit and rowan berries, a hint of furniture varnish, a very thin and neat stream along the very edge, a sharper taste, the same sweet fruits, but at the same time, it is an explosion of bright flavors, and a long, sweet and burning aftertaste! It was wonderful and unique.

A rich and dense whisky, at the same time very young, with some fuselage and alcohol present, but overall this does not introduce a strong imbalance into the overall picture; this is a definitely formed, integral product, with a fairly wide palette of derivatives and depth available, such a fusion of youth and unexpected maturity, and this is attractive.

Opeth83 Expert Senior 87 18 feb 2026 11:59 pm

Iam not a fan of Octomore, because of the pricing, but this is American oak, no wine casks involved. Let's try it... Well..it is very good for a 5 y old. It is the peated variant of the Springbank 5y old and I loved that one. But the price is just too high. 88 minus 1 for the price
