This Port Askaig 15 Year Old is a limited annual edition drawn from a careful selection of 30 refill hogsheads, all filled with single malt from Islay’s north coast. Matured slowly over 15 years, it balances depth and restraint, allowing maritime freshness and refined peat to shine without cask dominance. Bottled at 50.5% ABV, it delivers intensity with precision, revealing subtle layers that unfold gradually in the glass. Each annual release evolves in character, making this expression a distinct snapshot of Islay at maturity.
Port Askaig is a single malt range curated by Elixir Distillers, named after the historic harbour town that has served as Islay’s gateway for centuries. While no distillery bears the name, Port Askaig sources casks from the island’s distilleries, focusing on elegance, balance, and a true sense of place rather than distillery identity. The range is widely respected for expressing Islay’s diversity—smoke, sea air, citrus and mineral notes—through thoughtful cask selection and transparent maturation.
In stock
Nose: Clean and poised. Maritime smoke, lemon peel and green apple, followed by soft peat embers, barley sugar and coastal herbs.
Palate: Structured and elegant. Gentle peat smoke frames flavours of malted grain, citrus oil, white pepper and a subtle salinity, with a creamy mid-palate texture.
Finish: Long, refined and drying. Lingering smoke, sea spray, light spice and a return of citrus freshness.
