Port Ellen 1982 27 years old - The Birds - One of 168 - The Whisky Agency - b. 2010 - 700 ml

A very rare bottling from Port Ellen by The Whisky Agency, limited to 168 bottles


Port Ellen is the lost jewel in the Islay crown, closed down by DCL (now Diageo) in 1983 due to an oversupply of peated whisky for blending and a perceived lack of interest in it as a single malt. It has developed a legendary status in the years since. A very rare 12 year old bottled for attendees of the visit of Queen Elizabeth II in 1980 is believed to have been the only distillery bottling produced in its years of operation. Diageo have bottled more since, but it is the independent companies that have given the whisky world the best chance to sample this sought after single malt.
