About
Port Askaig Cask Strength ElD is a powerful Islay single malt that captures the full character of this legendary island. Bottled by Elixir Distillers at an impressive 59.4% ABV, this expression delivers an intense and uncompromising Islay experience without dilution. Matured in bourbon barrels, it retains the authentic ruggedness and complexity that Islay enthusiasts seek. The nose reveals layers of peaty smoke, seaweed, and tobacco, with citrus notes breaking through the haze. On the palate, the whisky is oily and full-bodied with notes of honey, peppery spice, and smoked meat—think prosciutto and smoked paprika—underpinned by oak bitterness. The finish is long and intense, with pronounced peat, pepper, and tar warming the throat. This is a whisky for those who love bold, unadulterated Islay character. Enjoy it neat or with a touch of water to further unlock its complexity.
