Product Description
Port Askaig 16 Year Old is a combination of bourbon- and sherry-cask-aged whisky. Replacing the popular 15 year old, this is big, bold and peaty.
An impressive composition, true to the distillery. Loved the oily profile, some parts remind me of the first Ten that Ardbeg had after Glenmo had bought the distillery. 89 Points. Serge Valentin, whiskyfun.com

Tasting Notes
Tasting Notes
Producer's Tasting Notes
Honeyed and autumnal tones combine with Islay smoke and charcoal dust. Sherry casks bring in richer fruity notes but still allow the clean, crisp spirit to shine through.
This is a big, bold and peaty dram, delivering the classic balance of flavours Port Askaig has become known for.

Excellent whisky, balance is great with prominent smoke being complimented by dried fruits and a citrusy zing that prevents it from getting to sweet all on a big bold oceanic background, marvels. tried it at the store next to the 15YO and the 19YO, this one crushed them, even my wife loved it so I instantly took a bottle
great depth and flavours ... the best in the range.. i liked it as much as the 30 years old... although the price could be a bit lower..but still the quality of the casks used in the mix should be very high...!! if you are not in a budget highly recommended!!
