The single malt whisky distillery Port Ellen was founded in 1825 in the small town of the same name in the south of whisky island Islay. Port Ellen was closed as a distillery in 1983 and converted into a large malting plant. The name Port Ellen has since grown to legendary proportions as one of the great 'lost distilleries' of Scotland. In the 21st century, quite a few, often highly valued bottlings were still released. From 2010 the stock did start to dry out.
In 2017, plans were published to reopen Port Ellen as a distillery.
The Port Ellen single malt certainly belongs in the list of legendary whiskies. And furthermore, this is an exceptional bottling of this Islay legend: vintage 1982 and bottled in 2005 as a 22-year-old, heavily sherried dram at a cask strength of 61.7%!
