As the terroir expression, the 16.3 demonstrates what Islay-grown barley — kissed by salty sea spray in the field — contributes to the Octomore character beyond the distillation and cask programme that the 16.1 and 16.2 explore. The PX cask component adds the intensely concentrated dark fruit and sweetness of Pedro Ximénez sherry to the 189.5 PPM Islay peat base at 61.6% ABV.
