Port Charlotte 10 year old is conceived, distilled matured and bottled only on Islay. Made from 100% Scottish barley, it is trickle distilled through tall, narrow-necked stills for a balanced, heathery style of barbeque smoke
- Ageing for 10 years on the shores of Loch Indaal has had a profound effect on this spirit. Like sunshine on a winters day, this Port Charlotte 10 brings clarity and lightens the mood, welcoming and brightening the future
- This heavily peated whisky was matured in a combination of first-fill American whiskey casks (65%), second-fill American whiskey casks (25%) and second-fill French wine casks
- Bottled at 50% with natural colour and un-chill filtered, this represents a quintessential Islay style whisky without the price tag of some of the the distillery's famous cousins from the south of the island
- The nose is crammed with dry, earthy peat detailed with a marked salinity and layered with notes of caramel, fudge, vanilla custard, ginger, nutmeg and clove
- The palate has a notable softness and delicacy of texture. Smokey, salty and sweet with plenty of coconut vanilla, lemon and honey from those ex-Bourbon casks
- Type/Colour: Single Malt Whisky
- Alcohol: 50%
- Bottle Size: 70cl
- Country: Scotland
