- Description
- This independent bottling from the shuttered Port Ellen distillery was selected and bottled by Royal Mile Whiskies at 45% ABV after 17 years' maturation. Port Ellen's peaty, maritime character should deliver classic Islay smoke, brine, and oil with the depth that extended aging provides. A rare opportunity to experience one of Scotland's most revered closed distilleries.
