The Port Askaig Whiskies are a brand of \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;Islay single malt Whiskies\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt; named after this picturesque town. London-based Specialty Drinks created the brand by collecting selected casks from some of the largest and most reputable single malt distilleries on the island and producing a series of independent single malt bottlings.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;em\u0026gt;Port Askaig 100° Proof \u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;is a modern single malt Islay Whisky made in the the old-world style. Importantly, this means old-world labeling as well. At 57.1% ABV, this is a full \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;cask-strength Islay \u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;with all of the b\u0026lt;em\u0026gt;ig, smoky flavour\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt; that lovers of this style crave. It is a prime example of the style with a smoky aroma and a rich, mineral-licorice flavor that is savory and a bit sweet. In \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;Jim Murray’s Whisky Bible 2017\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;, Port Askaig 100° Proof earned 96.5 points and runner up for\u0026lt;em\u0026gt; Best Single Malt Scotch\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt; in the NAS category.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;Smartass Corner: See the “degree” symbol after the 100 in “Port Askaig 100° Proof?” That’s because it’s based upon an old proofing system that is not used anymore. It was used here to reflect an old-school style of Whiskey. In this case both “100° proof” and “114.2 proof” are correct and mean 57% ABV. \u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45132286951606,"sku":"39930","price":21.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0727\/1251\/9862\/files\/portaskaig100-proof-700ml_39930_01_e9169c97_2d810b71-b71d-456c-8d7b-a631cf845968.jpg?v=1779127558","url":"https:\/\/noblebottle.com\/products\/portaskaig100-proof-700ml-39930","provider":"noblebottle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
