Port Askaig Cask Strength Batch #01-2023 70cl Whisky
Port Askaig Cask Strength Batch #01-2023
This cask strength Port Askaig released as part of the brand's 2023 relaunch. Aged in both first-fill bourbon barrels and refill American oak hogsheads, there's vanilla and citrus alongside distinctive Islay peat smoke. No more than 60 casks go into each batch, and each batch will offer a slightly different take on the taste of Islay.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Notes of wildflower meadows, fresh grass, and vibrant citrus on the nose, with a rising crescendo of bonfire smoke.
Palate
There is dark chocolate, salted caramel and vanilla.
Finish
A briny, smouldering ash.
