Port Askaig 2014/2025 - 10 y.o. - Toasted Barrel #1033 - Kirsch

Special features: This powerful Islay Single Malt was bottled exclusively for the German market. It matured for 10 years in a specially prepared Toasted Barrel (#1033) and was bottled at natural cask strength of 57.8% vol. This special cask treatment gives the whisky additional depth, soft roasted aromas, and a harmonious balance between maritime smoke and sweet spice – a true Islay experience with character.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: Strong peat smoke, campfire, and maritime salt notes meet caramel, vanilla, and roasted nuts. A hint of lemon zest and dried herbs adds additional complexity to the aroma.
• Palate: Full-bodied and complex – sweet smoke, malt sugar, and toffee combine with oak spice, dark chocolate, and light pepper. The toasted barrel maturation provides a creamy texture and gentle roasted aromas.
• Finish: Long, warm, and spicy – with notes of ash, salted caramel, vanilla, and a pleasant sweetness in the aftertaste.
