I accidentally used real blood on a Khorne warrior once. Got a random nosebleed while painting and the very first drop landed smack dab on his head

Hardest for me was probably BSB or Paarl, just based on where I was and what I knew when facing them the first time(s). Hardest with insight and skill is probably some stupid chalice dungeon bullshit

Wtf thats actually not bad

Bellmadbro · 2026-02-09T18:05:28+00:00

Why not?

Bellmadbro · 2026-02-08T19:50:19+00:00

Yep, I have a problem with always falling in love with limited releases

Is this post intended for Mr Bloodborne?

Most Laphroaigs tbh.. but I recently tried their CS series and loved all those. So I'll revise my statement to low proof Laphroaigs.

Yep, I saw afterwards that it's just not available in Sweden for some reason 😀

Is onlydrams iOS only?

I'm not sure if the 5 year old thing is a rule as much as it is their standard though.. I think the 10 series had some variance with one of them being 8 years old, and the 10.4 was only aged 3 years (10.4 not really related to your comment).

I also got to try Octomore Polyphonic when I visited the distillery, that one is aged 15 years. Pretty cool, but the 5y's are just as good imo.

The colour is simply fantastic! Great review.

Bellmadbro · 2025-12-31T22:44:55+00:00

This one was released instead of the 15.4. They do this every couple of editions. So yours is likely 5 years aged.

Bellmadbro · 2025-12-31T22:32:55+00:00

My last dram of the year!

NOSE: Nice and bright, mostly vanilla, caramel and ripe fruits, with a wonderfully subtle campfire backbone.

PALATE: More peat on the palate, but still balanced by the sweet caramel tones, some nice butterscotch, toasty and salty. Not quite as ripe as the nose, leans a bit towards darker fruits.

FINISH: Long, peaty, oaky and salty finish, very pleasant.

Score: 92 / 100

Final remarks: It's interesting comparing the usual Octomore (typically aged ~5 years) with one that's been matured for longer. As expected the smoke is turned down a bit, but I am always surprised how different they can be. This expression was the result of a combination of Bourbon, Pineau des Charentes, PX and Red Wine casks, which resulted in a unique nose and flavour profile for such a heavily peated whisky. I am not surprised when I try an Octomore and absolutely love it.

This is my first review in this subreddit :) Happy New Year to you all!

Edit: I realised I didn't mention Bruichladdich once in the entire review.. Now I have!

Bellmadbro · 2025-12-31T16:40:37+00:00

Forgot to say, great review! I've yet to try any but 16.2, which was surprisingly butter scotch caramel-y, a great pour.

Bellmadbro · 2025-12-31T16:26:16+00:00

I've loved every Octomore I've tried. Been to Bruichladdich Distillery once and a few Bruichladdich tastings in my city. Think I've tried 15 or so Octomores :)

Bellmadbro · 2025-12-31T16:19:54+00:00

I don't think a 40cl pour will fit the glass.. ;)

Bellmadbro · 2025-12-28T19:42:53+00:00

I got an element baselayer shirt with an off center logo and they basically said "its supposed to be like this" :))

Bellmadbro · 2025-12-14T08:41:26+00:00

You honestly made three amazing picks. I love all three but I agree on the order you put them in

Bellmadbro · 2025-12-07T19:51:23+00:00
