This is a 40 year old Port Ellen from Islay, distilled in 1979 and bottled in 2020 as the 9 Rogue Casks limited edition. It was made from a parcel of re-discovered casks that were married together before bottling, and 1380 bottles were produced. The packaging opens with two keys, one for the outer door and one for the inner glass door.
Port Ellen closed in 1983. The nose is delicate, grassy and herbal, with burnt tangerine skin, crème caramel, roasted coffee, red fruit compote and ripe peach skin. The palate brings more pronounced bonfire smoke, pipe tobacco, leather and wood spice, followed by a long, wispy smoke finish.
