Port Ellen 25 Year Old 1975 - First Bottling (Silver Seal)
Port Ellen
Tasting Notes
This sensational dram hails from the legendary Port Ellen distillery, a true gem nestled on the rugged shores of Islay. Distilled in 1975, when the distillery was still in full swing, this precious single malt spent a quarter of a century patiently aging in oak casks. The independent bottlers at Silver Seal carefully curated this release, capturing the essence of Port Ellen's iconic character. On the nose, a symphony of sea salt, smoldering peat, and citrus zest greets you, while the palate unveils layers of honey, vanilla, and a gentle wisp of smoke. The finish is long and contemplative, leaving you yearning for another sip of this liquid treasure from a bygone era. A true representation of Islay's illustrious whisky heritage, this bottle is a must-have for any discerning collector or peat enthusiast.
