Description
Port Ellen's 1982 vintage matured in sherry cask #319 for 21 years, capturing the distillery's peat and maritime character enhanced by wood influence. The sherry cask adds rich, dark fruit complexity—dried figs, raisins, and leather—layered beneath the signature Islay smoke and brine. Full texture with a long, warming finish balancing smoke with sherry sweetness. A collector's bottling that demonstrates how sherry cask treatment elevates closed-distillery spirit.
