🏰 About the Distillery

Port Askaig is a range of Islay whiskies selected by Speciality Drinks. The distillery of origin remains undisclosed, though often attributed to Caol Ila. The goal is to reflect Islay’s distinctive style: saline, smoky and mineral. The 8 Year Old stands out for its clarity and finesse.
