The maritime smoke is balanced by lemon and green apple, keeping peat from taking over. White pepper and a drying, smoky finish add a firmer edge. It sounds composed, though the coastal character is clearly central.

The 15-year-old Port Askaig has a clear, restrained shape: maritime smoke and soft peat embers meet lemon peel and green apple, while the palate turns toward malted grain, citrus oil and white pepper. I like that the smoke frames rather than overwhelms those brighter details. The refill hogshead is a useful point of cask context, while the appeal here is the balance of gentle peat and citrus. The drying, smoky finish rounds it out without losing that coastal character.
