product Details

Port Ellen 1979 24 Year Old 3rd Release​

The 3rd release of the incredibly popular Port Ellen annual releases.  Distilled in 1979 and bottled 24 years later in 2003, bottled at cask strength and limited to 9000 bottles.

Port Ellen is the lost jewel in the Islay crown. Closure in 1983 has enabled this distillery to receive a near mythical amount of love and respect. As stocks get thinner on the ground, these bottles become rarer and rarer.

Bottle number 2148.
