Drawn from extremely rare and exceptionally precious casks, this rich, creamy liquid features irreplaceable whiskies from now-closed distilleries that operated during King George V’s reign. Imparting a coastal smokiness and sweet spice, every drop of this liquid is a true rarity, matched only by the exclusivity of its elegant and limited edition design.

Sweet, smoky aromas deepened by Port Ellen are followed by notes of orange and Mediterranean fruits and the rich fruit spiciness - raisins, figs and cinnamon - of malts from across Scotland matured in European and American oak.
Palate

Rich in taste, on the palate there is an abundance of spice and dried fruits derived from the Speyside and Highlands whiskies with European oak character, this is perfectly balanced with creamy vanilla sweetness from the malts and grains matured in American oak, together releasing layer upon layer of flavour: sweet fruits, dark chocolate, toffee, spices and roast nuts.

Port Ellen intensifies the maritime Islay smokiness that gathers momentum through the exceptionally long, warming finish with hints of spice and pepper.
