Port Askaig, Autumn Edition, 12-Year-Old, Islay, Single Malt Scotch Whisky (45.8%)

Description

The evocative peat smoke nose on this dram is eminently typical of Islay’s finest whiskies. A hint of sea spray is reminiscent of its coastal home. The initial rush of fruit sweetness on the palate is tempered by subtle flavours of cooked seaweed and a dash of stewed apple. The finish is beautifully smooth and enticing.

Barley

Barley is a key ingredient in the production of some of the world's most renowned spirits, particularly whiskey and Scotch whisky. Malted barley is used as the primary grain in many single malt and blended Scotch whiskies, where it contributes a distinct malty, nutty, and sometimes smoky flavour profile. In addition to Scotch, barley is also a staple in the production of Irish whiskey, where it often lends a smoother, creamier taste. The versatility of barley as a grain makes it a favorite for creating complex and deeply nuanced spirits cherished by enthusiasts worldwide.
