Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 
Distillery Bottling 70cl / 61.7%

Like their Port Charlotte Islay Barley, Bruichladdich's Octomore Edition 11.3 has been made entirely from locally-sourced barley. There's a few important differences as well, though: Octomore Edition 11.3 is aged for 5 years in first fill bourbon barrels rather than 6 years in a mix of casks, for starters.

But more importantly, there's the peating level - Octomore Edition 11.3 is not for the fainthearted at an extraordinary 194ppm! For reference, that's nearly ten times Caol Ila or Lagavulin, which are usually 18-25ppm. And finally there's the strength - where the Port Charlotte is bottled at an approachable 50% abv, this is bottled at a natural cask strength of 61.7%, so perhaps have a drop of water at hand just in case.
