70cl / 50% / Douglas Laing – A 21 year old Port Ellen is pretty young by today’s standards, and this early Douglas Laing Old Malt Cask bottling from a 1979 cask should be phenomenal.
70cl / 50% / Douglas Laing – A sherried Port Ellen from the early days of the Old Malt Cask series, this is one of a string of single cask PE’s that really put Douglas Laing on the map as an independent bottler. The company had vast stocks of Port Ellen after buying it in…
70cl / 43% / Signatory – A 1979 vintage Port Ellen, released by independent bottlers Signatory. Having been matured in cask number 5143 for 22 years, this was bottled just after the turn of the millennium, long after the distillery sadly closed.
70cl / 43% / Signatory – A 1979 vintage of peated Port Ellen single malt, bottled in 2003 by independent bottler Signatory after more than two decades of gathering fruity citrus notes from a refill butt.
70cl / 46% / Wilson & Morgan – A 1979 vintage Port Ellen released by independent bottlers Wilson & Morgan as part of their barrel selection series. This was aged for 23 years before being bottled in 2003, by which time the distillery had sadly long closed.
70cl / 56.3% / Signatory – A single cask Port Ellen, distilled in 1979 and bottled at 23 years of age by Signatory. This was matured in a refill sherry cask, which yielded 359 bottles in October 2003.
70cl / 57.3% / Distillery Bottling – The eighth release sold out in a few days and the first edition now commands about a grand if you can find it, so this is a bargain. Classic PE kippers ‘n’ slippers character, with plenty of grunt from the high alcohol.
70cl / 57.4% / Distillery Bottling – The 5th yearly release of Port Ellen from Diageo as part of their 2005 Special Releases. Distilled in 1979 and maintaining the rather excellent quality of the series.
70cl / 53.8% / Distillery Bottling – This annual release for Port Ellen from Diageo is another 1979. We sold our allocation of the sixth release in a matter of weeks, so please be quick if you want one of these. As with the Brora, we don’t know how many more of these releases there…
70cl / 52.6% / Douglas Laing – A subtle, bookish, lemony PE bottled for travel retail, showing cocoa notes, old furniture and some tweed and dusty oak. Like hanging out in a library with your grand-dad. The phenols are restrained at first, but bite back with some oakspice in a warming, dry finish.
70cl / 53.9% / Distillery Bottling – The eleventh Port Ellen in Diageo’s Special Releases series was distilled in 1979 and bottled at 32 years old. We reckon it’s the best official PE in many years – sadly our allocation was completely pre-booked before the stock arrived.
70cl / 52.5% / Distillery Bottling – The most sought after of the yearly Diageo Special Releases – the official bottling of whisky from long closed Port Ellen.
