- Description
- This Hart Brothers bottling of Port Ellen from 1975, aged 22 years and bottled in the late 1990s, represents a bygone era of Scottish distilling excellence. The warm colour suggests influence from sherry or refill sherry wood, adding richness and depth to the distillery's characteristic briny, peated profile. Rarity and age combine to create a whisky of historical significance and refined complexity. A collector's piece for those fortunate enough to encounter it.
