Port Askaig is the gateway to the Scottish island of Islay. And asynonym for great whisky. Smoky notes, salty taste or a hint of seaweed - the Port Askaig brand captures the typical character of the island and its iconic whiskies. The independent bottlings from Elixir Distillers are real "mystery drams": which Islay distilleries the peaty drops come from is a secret.
No longer a secret: Port From November 2023, Askaig will be inviting you to get to know the essence of Islay with a refined look and a new core range. The core range consists of a total of three bottlings, with two of the single malts being limited but recurring as small batches or annual editions.
