product Details

Port Ellen 1978 Whisky Shop 24 Year Old / 10th Anniversary

This is an independent bottling of the incredibly popular Port Ellen. Distilled in 1978 and bottled 24 years later in 2002 by Douglas Laing for The Whisky Shop to celebrate their 10th anniversary.

Port Ellen is the lost jewel in the Islay crown. Closure in 1983 has enabled this distillery to receive a near mythical amount of love and respect. As stocks get thinner on the ground, these bottles become rarer and rarer.

Number 524 of 602 bottles.
