Port Askaig 15 Year Islay Single Malt

Bottled by Elixir Distillers, Port Askaig takes its name from the historic harbour town on Islay, long associated with the movement of whisky from the island to the mainland. While the exact distillery source remains undisclosed, the range is known for carefully selected casks that highlight purity, balance, and a true sense of place. The 15 Year Old represents a more mature side of the Port Askaig portfolio, typically matured in a combination of refill and American oak casks to allow the spirit’s natural character to shine without excessive oak influence.

Tasting Notes:
On the nose, expect soft peat smoke layered with lemon zest, sea spray, vanilla, and subtle honeyed notes. The palate is smooth and well-rounded, revealing gentle smoke, toasted oak, orchard fruit, and a touch of sweet spice. The finish is long, warming, and lightly drying, with lingering coastal smoke, citrus oils, and a refined oak sweetness.
