Heavily peated yet remarkably balanced, this Islay single malt is distilled, aged, and bottled entirely on the island. Crafted from 100% Scottish barley, it delivers waves of smoky BBQ, maritime salinity, and heathered malt. A true expression of Islay’s land, people, and spirit.

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.

Our Port Charlotte 10 year old expression is everything an Islay whisky can and should be.

With an ambition to make the ultimate “Islay” whisky, this is a single malt made by people not software; a whisky watched over every day of its maturing life by those who made it; a whisky born of a community with a vision and a mission to kick start a single malt whisky revolution. This Port Charlotte 10 year old is who we are. This is where we’re from.

We believe an “Islay” whisky should live and breathe the fresh salt tang of Islay air, all its life. This is not a spirit distilled on the island and immediately shipped off to the mainland to mature in an undisclosed warehouse.

This is a spirit born from the island and the community, a true expression of the land, the culture, the people.

Character
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.
