Port Ellen 1978 27 Year Old Old & Rare

Distilled in 1978 at the now-silent Port Ellen distillery on Islay, this 27-year-old single cask whisky represents a rare glimpse into a legendary past. Matured for over two decades, it embodies the distinctive character of Islay malts – a powerful smoky intensity balanced with a surprising elegance. Bottled in 2006 by Douglas Laing as part of their ‘Old & Rare’ series, this expression offers a complex palate of peat smoke, brine, and subtle sweetness. Only 375 bottles were ever released, making this a truly exceptional and sought-after whisky from a celebrated Scottish island.
