Whisky Tasting: Port Askaig 10th Anniversary – Scotch Whisky News
Port Askaig 10th Anniversary Tasting
WITH OLIVER CHILTON
Tuesday 23 April 2019
7pm-8.30pm
£50 Spaces limited. Tickets on sale now.
The village of Port Askaig is a lasting memory for anyone who has been lucky enough to visit Islay and experience its magic. Though no whisky is made there, it is the gateway to the island and its many distilleries. Since 2009, Elixir Distillers has been sourcing casks of single malt whisky from distilleries across Islay and, when the time is right, bottling them as expressions in the Port Askaig range.
Always non chill filtered. Never artificially coloured. 10 years on, Port Askaig’s releases are loved by whisky drinkers around the world for their honesty and consistently excellent flavour. We invite you to explore Port Askaig’s whisky and sample the latest limited-edition releases, bottled specially for the 10th anniversary of the range. Joining us at this special birthday tasting is Oliver Chilton – the man behind Elixir Distillers’ expert cask selection.
