Port Ellen 39 Year Old 1982 - Xtra Old Particular The Black Series (Douglas Laing)

Tasting Notes

This single malt Scotch whisky, distilled in 1982 at the legendary Port Ellen distillery on Islay, is a true gem. Aged for nearly four decades in a refill hogshead cask, it has developed an exceptional depth of flavor and complexity. Douglas Laing, renowned for their exceptional bottlings, unveiled this rarity as part of their Xtra Old Particular Black Series in 2022. At a robust 53.7% ABV, this whisky promises a bold and intense experience. Expect an array of aromas and flavors ranging from coastal brine and peat smoke to sweet vanilla and ripe fruit, reflecting the distillery's iconic character and the magic of extended maturation. A rare and coveted dram that pays tribute to Islay's lost distilling jewel.
