Notes
Port Ellen enjoys a somewhat cult status amongst whisky fans who favour a peated style. This is one of the last distillations before the distillery was mothballed in 1983, bottled by flag-bearers for the whisky industry, Gordon & Macphail. With the distillery expected to be operational again some time in 2020, these old bottlings will provide fascinating insight into how the new liquid measures up!
Distillery Note:
Nose: Peaty with some citrus notes.
Palate: Delicate ash and fruity, with balanced body.
Finish: Peat smoke with a spicy edge.

Salted milk chocolate, pecans drizzled in honey, baked apples with a dusting of icing sugar. A very engaging palate, it asks to be sipped again; light and sweet at first, with malty characters of butter pastry and enduring mouthfeel.

Lemon and orange barley sweets on the nose, which opens up to give cereal notes with the addition of water. Lemon barley again, on the palate, with pleasant honeysuckle and sweetness in the finish.
