Port Askaig 10 Year 10th Anniversary

The color might suggest minimal sherry influence, but you can smell it immediately after the smoke, along with some apple. After a while, the fruits become sweeter, almost jam-like. It also has a savory/BBQ quality. The first sip was spicy, followed by sherry fruits, then smoke/peat, then dryness and a hint of ash. The finish is of medium length. I'm impressed that it has acquired beautiful sherry notes without diminishing the freshness and still allowing the smoke to be prominent. A fantastic whisky in my opinion; I'm a big fan of peat/smoke and sherry.

Every sip is packed with peat. Smell: bacon, peat, smoke, coconut Taste: apricot, peat, peat, and more peat Finish: lives for a short time. Notes of smoke, tobacco, and you guessed it, peat

Bar/been open No water Smell - slight peat, strong grain, pear Taste - background smoke, a little oily, a little one dimensional Overall - decent scotch, nothing special

Smoky, sharp, earthy, salty, with a slightly smoky finish. A very pleasant whisky.

Damp pipe tobacco, smoked pork, wood smoke, cedar, maple-cured ham, lime peel.
