Port Ellen 24 Years Old 3rd Release 1979 – The Islay Distillery Made Legendary by Time
The Port Ellen 24 Years Old, 3rd Release, distilled in 1979, is one of the most sought-after and contended whiskies in the world. With the distillery closed since 1983 and stocks dwindling year after year, every bottle of Port Ellen that appears on the market is an absolute rarity. The 3rd release is one of the first releases that revealed the greatness of this Islay to the world.
On the nose, the Port Ellen 24 Years Old offers fragrant and intense Islay peat, sea salt, white flowers, citrus, and an elegant oak background. On the palate, the texture is silky and surprisingly light for such a smoky whisky, with the characteristic balance that distinguishes Port Ellen from all other Islays. The finish is very long and floral.
For the most discerning collectors. A historical piece that only appears in the best collections worldwide.
