Out of stock
This limited edition Port Askaig bottling is a tribute to the wonderful flavours of Islay, from a distillery on the north-east coast of Islay, close to the village of Port Askaig.
A blend of nine refill American oak hogsheads, five Oloroso sherry butts and three solera sherry butts has been used to create this flavourful single malt with a medley of smoky, fruity and coastal notes. To fully showcase its distinct Islay character, this whisky is non chill-filtered and bottled at 45.8%.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with copper-gold highlights and a hint of mahogany, a sunlit bronze glow.
Nose
Crumbly Wensleydale cheese, dotted with cranberries, evolves into smoky bacon crisps. Next, delectable cherry liqueur and the heavy succulence of boiled Christmas pudding, just set aflame.
Palate
Juicy red grapes mingle with smouldering wood chips and a whisper of dried seaweed, while cherry tomato confit and hawthorn berries provide bright, tangy counterpoints.
Finish
Salty and spicy notes remain – reminiscent of Tabasco sauce and smoked chipotle peppers. Echoes of berry tea and stewed plums linger on.
