Port Askaig 45 Year Old Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700ml

Distilled in 1968, this is the high point in the Port Askaig range, part of an outturn of just 51 bottles from a marriage of five sherry butts bottled at a frail cask strength of 40.8%. According to the creators, it's in an Islay style almost completely lost today: Fruit driven, with next to no smoke and with an abundance of tropical fruits such as mangoes and papayas... Rumour has it that the source is Islay’s northernmost distillery (so it's starting to sound a lot like Bunnahabhain at its finest). Regardless, a very, very rare whisky with a venerable age statement that remains reasonably priced in relation to many Highland equivalents. Only one bottle available.

ABV 40.80%
