Port Askaig – Cask Strength Small Batch #02-2024 70 cl. 59,1%
Islay Singe Malt Scotch Whisky
Port Askaig Cask Strength Small Batch #02-2024 is a limited edition single malt Scotch whisky from the island of Islay, known for its intense flavour and aroma. This batch was created from a maximum of 60 casks from a distillery on the north-east coast of Islay, and bottled at cask strength of 59,1 % alcohol.
A combination of different cask types was used in the production of this expression: 34 % ex-sherry Pedro Ximénez, 28 % ex-sherry Oloroso, 36 % refill oak casks and 2 % ex-bourbon casks.
This variety of casks contributes to the complex layers of dark sweetness, fresh fruitiness and warm spicy notes that blend harmoniously with the rich peaty character typical of Islay.
Port Askaig Cask Strength Small Batch #02-2024 is unchilled by filtration and contains no added colouring, ensuring an authentic and natural whisky experience. It is an ideal choice for lovers of intense and complex whiskies who will appreciate the rich palette of flavours and aromas that this expression has to offer.
