A rare and stunning vintage 1982 20 year old Port Ellen Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky, distilled in February 1982 and bottled after over 20 years maturation in a selected sherry cask in March 2002 without added colouring or chill filtration in an edition of only 666 bottles by Douglas Laing in the Old Malt Cask series at 50% vol.
Founded over 65 years ago by Fred Douglas Laing, Douglas Laing and Co. is one of the leading independent Scotch whisky blenders and bottlers, specialising in the finest single cask bottlings. Family-owned since 1948, the company is still run by the Laing family today. In keeping with the company's philosophy of no colouring - no chillltration - no nonsense, the whiskies are bottled at a high cask strength and not chill-filtered in order to preserve the robust and unique character of the whisky. The casks were purchased from Scotland's renowned whisky distilleries. Thus, the bottlings include famous active distilleries such as Ardbeg, Macallan, Highland Park and Bowmore, as well as already closed ones such as Port Ellen from the island of Islay. Through their experience and reputation as an old-established blending company, they can fall back on excellent relationships that go back a long way. These also make it possible to acquire one or the other special cask from distilleries that would otherwise not be available for sale.
The rarely available Port Ellen Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky from the early 1980s from the closed Distillery Port Ellen shines with a beautiful gold colour and is a special piece of whisky history for connoisseurs, the discerning whisky collector and lovers of fine old Scotch whiskies.
