About This Whiskey
Port Askaig 14 Year Old Bourbon Cask (45.8%) is a maritime-inspired Islay whisky that showcases the classic smoky, peaty character of the island, but with a lighter, more vibrant profile due to its maturation in bourbon casks. The result is a whisky that delivers the signature flavors of Islay—smoke, brine, and a touch of sweetness—without being overwhelmingly peaty. The bourbon cask influence brings forth a smooth, well-rounded mouthfeel, with vanilla, coconut, and subtle fruit notes enhancing the complexity of this balanced and refined expression.
