Another year, another set of Octomore bottlings. 12.2 won out last time, will 13.2 continue the trend?

Bruichladdich are well known for their experimental releases, so we're excited to see what difference barley strains have in the resulting spirit.

We continue our look at the private casks of Jim McEwan, this time we focus on Octomore, both in bourbon, both around 11/12yo, let's see if they live up to Jim's reputation.

It's always a treat to review these handpicked casks from Jim McEwan, so we're excited to see what the 5th release of his signature series holds...

Two 13 year old Port Charlotte's, a mixture of cask types but both from respected IB's including Master of Malt's own bottling range. 

Bruichladdich are known for their interesting wine cask maturations, and these IB Laddies are no exception. We look at how well the Bruichladdich spirit works in Madiera and Rivesaltes in this review.
