Port Ellen 40 Year Old - 9 Rogue Casks Single Malt Scotch Whisky, 70cl
Discover the story behind the 9 individual casks and how they have been masterfully intertwined to create this special Port Ellen 40-year-old liquid. Oldest Expression Yet – At 40 years old, this release is the oldest ever Port Ellen expression released to the public. Authentic in colour and cask strength, the liquid is as is.
Hugging the coastline on the revered Isle of Islay off the west coast of Scotland, Port Ellen has achieved legendary status amongst connoisseurs in the know with whiskies that are among the most sought after, with the magic and mystique growing with age since the distillery’s closure in 1983. Plans are now in place and work has started on rebuilding a brand new distillery to re-open in 2021.
The stocks from Port Ellen before closure in 1983 are limited in quantity and highly revered by the whisky experts as they improve with age. Special releases of these stocks offer a unique opportunity to own a part of Port Ellen’s history. There are only 1380 bottles available of the 9 Rogue Casks release which makes it both the oldest and the most limited public release from the distillery. Rare, Collectable, Unique
