Port Askaig Harbour 19

Country: Scotland

Region: Islay

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: The Whisky Exchange

ABV: 45.8%

Score: 90 Points

This Islay single malt has an earthy, smoky, and peaty nose with hints of heather and gorse. The taste is peaty, peppery, and pungent like an Islay fireplace with hints of caramel and licorice coming out as the smoke fades. The finish is lingering and pungent with hints of caramel sweetness adding balance.
