about 4 minutes in.
I would love to know what they were...I have an idea what they might be, but I'd be guessing.
Pale distillers malt...30 % ?
Peat Smoked malt...40 % ?
Amber malt...5 % ?
Crystal malt...5 % ?
Black patent malt...5 % ?
Chocolate malt...5 % ?
Wheat malt...5 % ?
Rye malt...5 % ?
Any ideas welcome...

They use different varieties of malted barley for different 'expressions'. Some are grown locally on Islay.

Bruichladdich Octomore 08.3 Masterclass
Clocking in at 309.1PPM at malting, this Octomore expression is the peatiest Bruichladdich in history, and quite possibly the peatiest whisky ever recorded.
