Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 8 Year

• Single malt Islay Scotch whisky independently bottled by Port Askaig
• Small batch vatting of single malt whisky from an undisclosed Islay distillery
• 100% peated malted barley twice distilled on copper pot stills
• Aged in refill American oak casks for a minimum of 8 years
• Brisket, black pepper, and lemon zest on the nose prime the palate for flavors of poached apples, Worcestershire sauce, and sweet, puffed cereal. Notes of yellow curry and waxy green peppers play alongside lightly toasted almonds, fresh-cut cedar, leading to apple skin on the finish.
• Non-chill filtered; 45.8% ABV

A seductive dance of fruit, umami, and tannin make this core stylistic statement from Port Askaig everything one could want from an Islay whisky. Expect delightful revelations as it evolves and mellows in glass.
