Port Askaig, Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Aged 14 Years Bourbon Cask, 45.8% 700ml

Distilled in 2004 and aged in eleven first-fill Bourbon barrels, this small batch 14 Year Old expression of Port Askaig balances robust smokiness and sweet spice, showcasing a more unusual single malt from this Islay distillery, whilst still hinting at its signature rich, sweet style.

Tasting Notes
NOSE
Stewed fruits and barbecue coal with sea spray and coastal rocks. Sweet smoke dissipates as core flavours of fresh citrus and salted caramel come to the fore combining classic Islay flavours with refreshing fruity notes.
PALATE
Burnt honeycomb and baked raisins infused with five-spice and peat smoke. Candied fruits and sherbet lemon build as an underlying earthy peat brings together a superbly rich and juicy mouth-feel, with crème brûlée-like notes and a delicious peat-infused caramel layer.
FINISH
Long and heavy with maple-cured bacon and liqueur-soaked sultanas. A beautifully fresh and peaty finish.
