This Port Ellen was distilled in 1979 and is 32 years old. It comes from the closed Islay distillery and was bottled by Douglas Laing in the Old & Rare A Platinum Selection, at 54.8% ABV. The nose opens with a fresh tang of salt and sea air, warming to soft damp leather and melting sugar. The palate is full and distinctly oceanic, salty and dry, with cedar wood and a suggestion of ash. The finish is long, with soft calf leather, grapes and lemon zest.

About Glenbotal

The idea of Glenbotal came to us naturally: as whisky lovers, we were always on the lookout for new experiences in the whisky world. That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from ballots and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
