Port Ellen 1982 The Old Malt Cask 19 Year Old

From the legendary Port Ellen distillery – silenced in 1983 but forever enshrined in whisky history – comes this 19-year-old single malt, expertly matured by Douglas Laing in sherry casks. Distilled in 1982, this bottling captures the essence of Islay’s famed peat smoke, balanced with rich dried fruit and spice notes imparted by the sherry wood. A complex and intensely flavourful whisky, it offers a lingering finish characteristic of Port Ellen’s uniquely oily texture and smoky sweetness. This expression represents a rare opportunity to experience a piece of Islay’s lost heritage, bottled at cask strength to preserve its full character.
