Port Ellen 37 Years Old 16th Release 1978 – The Oldest Expression from the Legendary Distillery

The Port Ellen 37 Years Old, 16th Edition, distilled in 1978, is one of the most extreme and extraordinary expressions in the release series from the closed Islay distillery. Thirty-seven years of slow maturation in the cask represent the maximum limit of aging available from this mythical distillery, and the result is a whisky with a unique sensory dimension in the universe of Scotch whisky.

In the glass, the Port Ellen 37 Year Old reveals the distillery's most evolved and complex character: peat softened by decades but still present, intense dried fruit, old leather, wax, very mature oak spices, and an absolutely unmistakable hint of slate and sea salt. On the palate, the texture is ethereal and of an elegance that defies expectation. The finish is eternal.

The pinnacle of Scotch whisky collecting. A truly unrepeatable bottle in every sense. For the world's most ambitious collections.
